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 slant-front writing bureau is a historic workspace piece featuring a hinged sloping lid that opens downward to form a flat desk surface, situated atop a lower chest of drawers.

Georgian bureaux were typically constructed using native hardwoods such as oak and walnut, later incorporating mahogany, featuring hand-cut dovetail joints and solid brass hardware.

Authentic 18th-century bureaux display hand-sawn wood marks, hand-carved dovetail joints on drawer linings, natural wood shrinkage around panel edges, and original brass drop handles.

A classic writing bureau functions effectively as a compact home office desk in modern living rooms, study alcoves, or hallway landings, blending historical character with functional storage.

Preserve solid oak furniture by keeping it away from direct heat sources, maintaining stable room humidity, and applying a quality beeswax polish periodically to protect the wood finish.
