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.

During the George III period, British cabinetmakers adapted French Louis XV Rococo proportions, incorporating slender cabriole legs, subtle serpentine curves, and detailed marquetry into traditional writing desks and tables.

Cabinetmakers predominantly utilised timbers such as mahogany, satinwood, and rosewood, often detailed with floral marquetry inlays, hand-cast brass mounts or sabots, and internal oak or pine drawer lining.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-dovetailed drawer joints, period-appropriate brass hardware, original oak or pine secondary timbers, natural surface patination, and hand-cut timber veneers.

Position the piece as a focal point in a hallway alcove, a compact study desk in a bedroom, or pair it with modern seating to create a balanced contrast between traditional wood tones and contemporary lines.

Keep the timber positioned away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent veneer movement, dust regularly with a soft dry cloth, and apply a high-grade beeswax paste along the grain annually.
