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

The bureau evolved during the late 17th century, combining a slant-front writing desk with a set of storage drawers to create a functional piece for correspondence and record-keeping.

Traditional bureaux are typically constructed from dense hardwoods like mahogany, oak, or walnut, featuring dovetail joints on the drawers and secondary woods such as pine for internal framing.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut dovetails, period-appropriate brass hardware, natural timber shrinkage, and hand-planed secondary surfaces rather than modern machine tooling.

A classic wooden bureau can serve as a functional workstation in a home office or living room, offering a warm textural contrast against minimalist or contemporary decor.

Preserve the finish by keeping the piece away from direct sunlight and heat sources, and maintain the wood periodically using traditional beeswax rather than modern silicone polishes.
