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.

An Edwardian writing bureau in warm brown mahogany and satinwood brings traditional English country house style to a study, living room or bedroom. The sloped fall-front lid has an oval inlaid shell medallion and a central keyhole, opening to reveal a fitted interior and writing surface, while the three wide lower drawers are fitted with brass swan-neck drop handles and decorative crossbanded borders. The structure is raised on bracket feet and includes small side catches, exposed grain patterns and warm tonal variations across the timber surfaces. Measuring 99 cm high, 76 cm wide and 43 cm deep, this practical desk provides both concealed workspace and generous storage capacity for everyday paperwork and stationery in a modern home.

FAQs

Edwardian writing bureaux are typically characterised by lighter wood veneers such as satinwood or mahogany, refined proportions, and neoclassical influences including crossbanding, stringing, and marquetry inlays.

Primary woods often include mahogany, satinwood, walnut, or oak, while drawer linings were typically made from pine or oak, fitted with cast brass handles and steel locks.

Authentic pieces feature hand-cut dovetail joints on drawers, pull-out wooden lopers to support the fall-front flap, period-correct brass hardware, and natural wear patterns consistent with age.

An antique bureau functions as a compact home office desk in a living area, bedroom, or hallway nook, combining historical charm with modern functionality when paired with contemporary lighting.

Keep the wood away from direct sunlight and central heating radiators to prevent cracking, clean surfaces using a dry microfibre cloth, and apply a high-grade beeswax polish annually.
