Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Arts and Crafts pedestal desks typically feature honest woodwork, visible construction details, solid oak framing, and utilitarian form focused on quality craftsmanship around the turn of the 20th century.

Desks from this era were predominantly crafted from solid oak or oak veneers, featuring hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, cast brass hardware, and inset leather writing surfaces.

Look for signs of age such as hand-cut dovetails, original brass handles with natural oxidisation, authentic wear to the base, and solid timber drawer linings rather than modern plywood.

Balance the substantial oak structure by pairing it with a sleek modern desk chair, contemporary brass lighting, and neutral wall tones to allow the wood grain and historic character to stand out.

Dust the wood regularly with a soft cloth and apply beeswax polish annually along the grain. Treat the inset leather surface with dedicated leather balm to prevent drying or cracking over time.
