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

Art Deco desks, originating in the 1920s and 1930s, are characterised by geometric forms, clean lines, rich timber veneers, and functional symmetry reflecting modern industrial aesthetics.

Craftsmen typically utilised timber veneers such as walnut, mahogany, and birch, often incorporating leather writing surfaces, brass hardware, and polished lacquer finishes.

Look for geometric stepped profiles, high-quality timber veneers applied over solid wooden frames, original lock mechanisms, and sharp angular silhouettes typical of the 1920s through 1940s.

Pair the desk with modern minimalist lighting, a tailored leather desk chair, and neutral background tones to highlight the warm timber grain and architectural silhouette.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, apply specialised beeswax to preserve the veneer finish, and keep the piece away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent warping.
