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

Georgian writing desks are defined by symmetrical proportions, refined timber selection such as mahogany, and elegant support structures like cabriole or tapered legs. Designed specifically for smaller spaces or personal correspondence, these pieces frequently incorporate leather writing inserts and multiple drawers.

Primary construction typically uses solid mahogany or mahogany veneers over oak or pine carcass wood. Writing surfaces are traditionally inlaid with gilded leather, while hardware consists of cast brass handles, such as batwing or swan-neck styles.

Authentic 18th-century pieces display hand-cut dovetail joints inside drawers, uneven tool marks on unexposed rear panels, and natural oxidisation on brass fitments. Reproductions usually feature machine-cut joinery, uniform drawer linings, and modern screws.

A compact mahogany desk functions effectively as a hallway console table, a bedroom vanity, or a compact workstation in a modern living space. Combining the dark timber with modern minimalist seating or contemporary table lamps creates a balanced aesthetic.

Timber surfaces require periodic application of natural beeswax polish to maintain moisture and patina, avoiding silicone-based sprays. The leather insert should be wiped with a soft, slightly damp cloth and treated with specialised leather conditioner to prevent drying and cracking.
