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

A Georgian mahogany bureau is an 18th-century writing cabinet featuring an angled sloping flap that folds down to create a flat desktop, mounted above a vertical flight of storage drawers.

These bureaus were constructed primarily from solid and veneered mahogany, featuring secondary timbers like oak or pine for drawer linings, complemented by hand-cast brass handles and lock escutcheons.

Authentic period bureaus display hand-cut dovetail joints, hand-planed back panels, natural timber shrinkage along the grain, and original iron locks with period brass faceplates.

Position the bureau in a quiet study, living area, or wide hallway as a functional workspace, balancing the dark mahogany wood with contemporary task lighting and light neutral wall finishes.

Dust regularly using a dry microfibre cloth and apply a clear beeswax polish once or twice per year, ensuring the piece is kept away from direct heat sources to prevent timber cracking.
