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.

Gothic Revival writing tables feature architectural motifs inspired by medieval church design, including trefoils, pointed arches, traceried friezes, and sturdy trestle bases, popularised during the 19th century in Britain.

These tables were typically constructed from solid light oak, dark oak, or walnut, often incorporating hand-carved friezes, inset leather writing surfaces with gilt tooling, and mortise-and-tenon joinery.

Authentic pieces exhibit 19th-century cabinetmaking details such as hand-dovetailed drawer joints, natural patina on oak surfaces, age-appropriate wear to leather inserts, and period-correct carved details.

Position the piece as a statement desk in a modern home office or study, pairing its structured carved silhouette with contemporary desk lighting and neutral wall tones to highlight the oak wood grain.

Dust the oak frame regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply beeswax polish annually along the wood grain, while keeping the leather inset clean with specialist leather conditioner and protecting it from direct sunlight.
