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.
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.
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.

A slant-front walnut bureau is a traditional writing desk featuring a sloped hinged lid that opens downwards to form a flat writing surface, revealing an arrangement of internal compartments, small drawers, and pigeonholes above lower storage drawers.

Antique bureaux were traditionally constructed using solid timbers or timber frames decorated with figure-matched walnut or burr walnut veneers, brass drop handles, iron locks, and secondary woods such as pine or oak for drawer linings.

Authentic period walnut bureaux feature hand-cut dovetail joints, oak or pine secondary drawer timbers, hand-cast brass hardware with original patination, and evidence of historical woodworking techniques on the rear backboards.

An antique walnut bureau functions as a compact workspace in a home office, living area, or bedroom, pairing warm timber tones with contemporary lighting and neutral paint palettes.

Burr walnut finishes should be preserved by dusting with a soft cloth, applying a high-grade beeswax polish occasionally along the wood grain, and avoiding direct heat sources or humid conditions.
