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 Nouveau writing bureaux are characterised by organic, flowing lines, stylized natural forms, and delicate marquetry or inlaid detail. Originating between the late 1890s and 1910, these pieces often blend functional vertical storage with distinctive architectural cut-outs and fluid contours.

These bureaux were predominantly constructed using dense hardwoods such as mahogany or oak. Decorative elements often incorporated contrasting timber inlays, such as boxwood or satinwood stringing, along with brass drop handles and solid timber drawer linings.

Authentic period bureaux feature hand-cut dovetail joinery inside the drawers, solid wood back panels, and period-correct brass locks or escutcheon plates. Natural wear around the fall-front hinges and subtle variations in the hand-set inlay also indicate genuine period construction.

A slim writing bureau works well in compact spaces such as hallway alcoves, home offices, or living room corners. The drop-front panel provides a fold-away desk space, while lower shelving can display books or contemporary ceramic art objects.

Maintain the finish by dusting regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and applying a beeswax polish along the grain twice a year. Keep the item away from direct heat sources and radiators to prevent the wood from drying, warping, or cracking.
