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 smokers bow armchair, often referred to as a captains chair, is a low-backed wooden seating design featuring a curved horseshoe-shaped crest rail, turned spindles, and a shaped solid seat.

These chairs traditionally feature figured elm for the solid saddle seats due to its strength and resistance to splitting, with turned beech or ash used for the legs, stretchers, and back spindles.

Authentic 19th-century examples display hand-turned spindles, natural grain variations across the elm seat, wedged leg joints visible through the seat, and signs of honest wear around the stretcher rails.

A set can be paired with a clean-lined modern oak or zinc-topped dining table to create a balanced contrast between historic craftsmanship and contemporary minimalism.

Regular dusting with a dry microfiber cloth and an occasional application of high-quality beeswax polish will preserve the timber patina and protect the wood from drying out.
