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.

Writing tables from these periods are characterised by refined proportions, oval or rectangular silhouettes, and functional central drawers. They frequently feature classical influences such as tapered square legs, subtle carving, and inset leather surfaces.

These pieces were crafted using solid mahogany and mahogany veneers, often finished with gold-tooled leather inserts and brass hardware. Construction methods typically include hand-cut dovetail joints on drawers and mortise-and-tenon frame joinery.

Authenticity can be verified by inspecting drawer construction for asymmetrical hand-sawn dovetails, natural shrinkage along the timber, and genuine patina on brass fittings. Antique leather tops typically show age-consistent wear, surface craquelure, and hand-tooled borders.

A mahogany writing table functions effectively as a compact desk in a home office, a hallway console table, or an accent piece behind a sofa. Combining warm timber tones with contemporary lighting or modern artwork creates a balanced, layered aesthetic.

Dust the wood regularly with a dry microfiber cloth and apply natural beeswax polish along the grain annually. Protect the leather inset from direct sunlight to prevent fading and condition it periodically with a specialised leather salve.
