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

Originating in the early 18th century, a Georgian kneehole desk features a central recessed opening flanked by short pedestals of drawers, often incorporating a small cupboard within the recess.

Cabinetmakers primarily utilised walnut or mahogany veneers laid over oak or pine carcass frames, accented with solid brass handles and escutcheons.

Authentic pieces feature hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, oak drawer linings with the wood grain running front to back, period-correct brass drop handles, and authentic wear on structural contact points.

Position the piece in a study, hallway, or living area alongside neutral modern upholstery and modern brass lighting to highlight the figured timber grain.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a clear beeswax polish annually, keeping the piece away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent drying and fading.
