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

Kneehole desks emerged in the late 17th century and became particularly popular during the Georgian period, designed to provide a compact writing surface with integrated storage pedestals.

Authentic period pieces are typically crafted from solid mahogany or oak veneers over secondary woods, featuring hand-cut dovetail joints on the drawer construction and brass hardware.

Authenticity is determined by examining hand-planed surfaces, irregular dovetailing, original brass drop handles, and the presence of natural ageing and oxidisation within the timber.

It can be integrated as a focal point in a home study or living room, paired with a contrasting contemporary chair to balance traditional craftsmanship with modern utility.

Protect the wood from direct sunlight and extreme humidity fluctuations, and periodically nourish the surface with traditional beeswax rather than modern silicone polishes.
