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

Originating in the early 18th century, a kneehole desk is a compact form of case furniture designed with a central recessed opening to accommodate the legs of the user, flanked by columns of drawers and often containing a small recessed cupboard.

These pieces were typically constructed from dense timber such as Cuban or West Indian mahogany, featuring pine or oak secondary drawer linings, hand-cut dovetail joints, and cast brass swan-neck or batwing hardware.

Authentic pieces display hand-sawn drawer linings, hand-cut dovetail construction, original brass keyhole escutcheons, ogee or shaped bracket feet, and natural wear patterns along the bottom edges and kneehole area.

Due to its compact proportions, a kneehole desk functions as a functional writing space in a bedroom alcove, a hallway focal piece, or a side table in a contemporary living room setting.

Preserve the finish by dusting with a soft, dry cotton cloth, applying beeswax polish once or twice per year, and positioning the timber away from direct sunlight and artificial heat sources.
