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

Early 19th-century writing tables, typically produced during the Regency and Georgian eras, feature clean lines, high-quality mahogany construction, and practical functional elements such as hinged reading slopes and brass castors.

These tables were predominantly constructed from solid or veneered mahogany, featuring hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, turned wood knobs, and brass castors fitted to square tapered legs.

Authentic pieces display hand-cut joinery inside the drawers, historical timber shrinkage, original brass castors secured with period screws, and natural patination across mahogany surfaces.

Place the writing table in a hallway or study alcove paired with a modern desk lamp and minimalist artwork to contrast historic timber with contemporary design elements.

Preserve mahogany surfaces by dusting regularly with a soft dry cloth, applying a wax polish annually, and keeping the piece away from direct heat sources to prevent timber movement.
