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.

Victorian writing tables were crafted during the 19th century to accommodate domestic letter writing and administration. They typically feature rectangular tops, often inset with leather skivers, supported by turned or tapered legs and fitted with frieze drawers.

These tables were commonly constructed from solid timbers such as mahogany, walnut, or oak, often finished with decorative veneers like satinwood or rosewood. Writing surfaces were typically inset with gilt-tooled sheepskin or cowhide leather skivers.

Authentic period examples demonstrate hand-cut or early machine dovetail joints in the drawers, hand-turned legs, and period-correct brass or turned timber drawer knobs. The undersides often reveal rough-sawn construction timber with natural oxidation.

A Victorian writing table can serve as a dedicated laptop workspace in a contemporary study or double as an entryway console table. Combining the piece with modern task lighting and streamlined seating balances historical character with contemporary functional design.

Dust the timber surfaces regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish along the grain twice yearly. Clean and nourish the leather skiver using specialised leather conditioner while keeping the piece away from direct heat to prevent warping.
