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

Originating in early 19th-century Britain, Regency writing desks are characterised by classical proportions, elegant curved or sabre legs, and functional elements such as inset leather surfaces and pierced brass galleries designed to retain papers.

Craftsmen typically utilised fine decorative timbers like burr oak, mahogany, or rosewood, complemented by brass fittings, brass castors, and gold-tooled leather writing surfaces.

Look for hand-dovetailed drawer construction, original cast brass hardware or castors, natural timber oxidisation, and period-appropriate hand-tooled leather inserts.

A Regency desk functions well as a focal statement piece in a contemporary study, home office, or living area, particularly when contrasted with modern art or clean-lined lighting.

Dust regularly with a dry, lint-free cloth, position away from direct heat sources to prevent veneer lifting, and care for the leather top with specialised leather conditioner.
