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.

Popularised during the 18th century in Great Britain, a Georgian oak writing bureau features a slanted drop-front writing flap supported by lopers, which opens to reveal internal drawers and compartments above a series of full-width drawers.

These pieces were typically constructed from solid oak or mahogany, utilising hand-cut dovetail joints, oak drawer linings, brass swan-neck handles, and bracket feet for structural support.

Authentic period examples demonstrate hand-planed timber surfaces, hand-cut dovetails, period-appropriate brass fittings, original locks, and natural wear patterns consistent with historic usage.

A Georgian oak bureau fits comfortably in a study, hallway, or living area, offering a contrast when set against contemporary neutral walls, modern lighting, and minimalist art.

Timber surfaces should be maintained with periodic applications of natural beeswax, kept away from direct heat sources to prevent shrinkage, and wiped down with a clean, dry microfibre cloth.
