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

Queen Anne chairs are recognised by curved silhouettes, contoured backsplats often shaped like a vase or violin, and solid or drop-in seats. Emerging in the early 18th century, this style favoured simplicity, restraint, and ergonomic comfort over heavy surface carving.

Country furniture makers commonly used native British hardwoods such as oak, elm, ash, and fruitwoods. Seats were frequently shaped from durable elm slabs, while frames and turned stretchers were constructed from robust oak for structural longevity.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-cut mortise and tenon joinery, wooden peg construction, and visible wear on stretchers where feet rested over time. Variations in timber grain, hand-planed seat undersides, and subtle asymmetrical irregularities also indicate historic hand craftsmanship.

These chairs pair with scrubbed pine, contemporary minimalist, or zinc-topped dining tables to create a layered aesthetic. The dark timber tones provide visual weight and textural contrast against neutral walls and modern textiles.

Dust the timber regularly with a dry cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish annually to protect the surface finish. Position the furniture away from direct heat sources or high humidity to prevent timber movement, joint loosening, or splitting.
