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.
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.
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.

Seventeenth-century oak armchairs, often termed wainscot chairs, feature solid construction, rectilinearity, and panelled backrests. They typically incorporate turned front legs, plain rear legs, and stretchers designed to keep feet off cold floors.

These chairs were primarily constructed using native English oak joined via wooden pegs and mortise and tenon joints. Seats were made from solid oak planks without upholstery, sometimes padded with loose cushions.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-hewn tool marks, irregularities in symmetry, and original peg construction. Look for deep patination in areas of natural contact, alongside expected shrinkage across wide oak panels over time.

Position the piece as a singular statement chair in a modern hallway, study, or living space. Juxtaposing dark oak against neutral, textured walls and contemporary art highlights the historic form.

Maintain a stable indoor humidity level to prevent timber movement and cracking. Clean surfaces with a soft cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish sparingly once or twice a year to preserve the patina.
