Dealers Notes

I have been established as a dealer and antique furniture restorer for almost 20 years.

I have a real love and passion of fine 18th and early 19th century furniture.

As a professional restorer I am always searching for the finest quality and original items but should any restoration be nessesary it will be sympathetically and skilfully carried out in house by myself.

If items are purchased with buy now option I shall do my very best to work with my courier to offer free delivery within most of UK mainland. (Some exclusions to locations may apply)

It has been noted that the system is rounding up measurements added in cm to the next nearest inch so if dimensions are critical for a particular space please work by the cm size listed of please ask.

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.

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

A Davenport desk is a compact 19th-century writing cabinet featuring an inclined hinged top over a chest of drawers. Originating in England, the design was commissioned by Captain Davenport from Gillows of Lancaster for shipboard and space-saving utility.

During the William IV era, these desks were predominantly crafted from solid and veneered rosewood or mahogany, often featuring hand-carved barley twist supports, pierced brass galleries, and hand-dovetailed drawer linings.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-accurate joinery, such as hand-cut dovetails, original brass locks, natural timber patination, and architectural design elements characteristic of the 1830s, including spiral turned supports and brass gallery edging.

A Davenport desk functions as a compact statement piece in a study, hallway, or living room alcove, providing functional storage and historic texture alongside streamlined modern furnishings.

Keep rosewood furniture positioned away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent timber movement and fading. Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax paste periodically to protect the finish.
