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

Developed during the Edwardian era in the early 20th century, these desks evolved from 19th-century compact writing slopes, incorporating classical revival decorative motifs such as satinwood marquetry urns and brass galleries.

Craftspeople predominantly utilised mahogany and rosewood veneers, accented with boxwood or satinwood inlay, hand-dovetailed drawer joints, and gold-tooled leather writing surfaces known as skivers.

Genuine period items display natural timber oxidisation, authentic brass locks and castors, hand-finished joinery, and fine marquetry detailing rather than modern printed transfers.

Position the piece in a study alcove or hallway as a dedicated writing station, paired with contemporary task lighting and minimalist decorative glassware to complement the warm mahogany tones.

Preserve the timber finish by applying high-grade beeswax twice yearly, clean the leather skiver with a dry lint-free cloth, and position the desk away from direct heat sources to prevent fading.
