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 cylinder desk is a type of writing desk featuring a rigid, quarter-cylindrical wooden shutter that rotates upward around a central axis to reveal an organized interior fitted with pigeonholes and small drawers.

These pieces were typically constructed from solid mahogany or oak, often finished with flame mahogany or satinwood veneers, hand-cut dovetail joints, and leather-inset writing surfaces.

Authentic period pieces display hand-cut dovetailing inside drawer boxes, solid wood back panels, original brass lever locks, and natural oxidation or patination on the mahogany timber.

Anchor the desk in a home office or library setting paired with neutral wall treatments, modern brass lighting, and contemporary seating to balance traditional wood tones.

Preserve the finish by applying high-grade beeswax polish once or twice a year, keeping the wood away from direct heat sources or radiators, and conditioning any leather surfaces with appropriate leather balm.
