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.

A balloon back chair is a style of seating originating in the 1830s during the William IV and early Victorian eras, characterised by a continuous rounded, open seat back reminiscent of a balloon outline.

Period salon chairs were predominantly constructed from dense hardwoods such as walnut, mahogany, or rosewood, combined with webbed, spring-cushioned, or stuffed upholstered seats covered in damask, velvet, or horsehair fabric.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-carved timber detailing, traditional peg or mortise and tenon joinery, natural age-related wood patination, and subtle variations in hand-finished framework rather than uniform machine carving.

These period chairs can be integrated alongside sleek modern dining tables to create a curated eclectic look, or used individually as accent seating in bedrooms, hallways, and study spaces.

Protect walnut frames by applying a natural beeswax polish along the grain twice yearly, vacuuming upholstery gently with a soft brush attachment, and keeping the wood away from direct sunlight or radiator heat.
