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

Edwardian writing tables produced between 1901 and 1910 often drew inspiration from 18th-century Sheraton designs, featuring dense rosewood veneers, intricate satinwood marquetry inlays, delicate ribbon or floral scrolls, and lighter, tapered leg structures.

These tables commonly incorporate solid wood frameworks faced with rosewood or mahogany veneers, tool-embossed leather writing surfaces, brass handles, and hand-cut dovetail drawer joints finished with small brass castors on the feet.

Authentic pieces feature genuine timber inlays rather than printed patterns, natural patination around wear points, period-appropriate drawer construction, and historical brass hardware that exhibits light oxidisation.

Position the piece as a focal desk in a home office or living room alcove, balancing the dark timber and warm tones against neutral wall colours, contemporary task lighting, and minimal desktop accessories.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply high-grade beeswax sparingly to the woodwork to protect the veneer. Clean leather insets using a damp cloth and specialized leather conditioner while keeping the piece away from direct heat sources and sunlight.
