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

A kneehole desk is a writing table featuring a central open recess for the users legs, flanked by integrated drawers or pedestals on either side. Popularised in eighteenth-century Britain, these desks offer structured storage alongside a flat writing surface.

Traditional mahogany desks feature solid or veneered mahogany construction, hand-fitted drawer linings, cast brass drop handles, and an inset leather writing surface often finished with blind or gilt tooling.

Authentic antique pieces display hand-cut dovetail joints on drawer construction, historical wear on internal drawer runners, original brass lock mechanisms, and natural timber shrinkage lines around structural joints.

Pair a dark mahogany desk with modern task lighting, clean-lined contemporary artwork, and neutral wall tones to establish a balanced contrast between historic cabinet making and modern aesthetic elements.

Dust surfaces regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, avoid placing the item in direct sunlight or near heat sources, apply natural beeswax polish along the grain annually, and clean the leather top with specialised leather conditioner.
