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

A roll top desk is a variation of the pedestal desk featuring a flexible wooden flexible curtain, known as a tambour, that slides along curved tracks to cover or reveal internal writing surfaces and storage pigeonholes.

These desks were predominantly constructed from solid oak or mahogany, utilising narrow, interlocking wood slats glued to canvas backing for the tambour mechanism, alongside cast brass hardware and dovetail drawer joints.

Examine the construction details, such as hand-cut or early machine dovetail joints in the pedestal drawers, natural wear on the wooden drawer runners, original brass lock mechanisms, and the smooth operation of the canvas-backed flexible tambour.

Position the piece as a focal point against a dark accent wall in a study, pairing the warm oak timber with a contemporary leather chair, minimalist task lighting, and modern ceramics inside the pigeonhole compartments.

Apply high-grade beeswax polish along the grain to protect the timber surface, and lubricate the side tracks of the slatted tambour shutter with paraffin wax or beeswax to ensure effortless sliding without damaging the canvas backing.
