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 bobbin turned chair features legs, stretchers, or back supports shaped on a lathe to resemble a series of spools or bobbins, a woodturning technique prominent during the seventeenth and late nineteenth centuries.

These chairs were typically constructed from dense hardwoods such as beech, oak, or birch, which were stained black to imitate ebony, paired with woven textiles or velvet upholstery.

Authentic period pieces often display minor lathe irregularities in the turned spindles, natural timber grain visible beneath areas of worn dark finish, and traditional mortise and tenon joinery.

Placing an ebonised chair against a neutral background allows the dark geometric silhouette to function as a clear structural accent in a hallway, bedroom corner, or beside a writing desk.

Dust the woodwork using a dry microfibre cloth, avoiding abrasive cleaning agents that strip the dark lacquer, and clean the velvet upholstery gently with a soft-bristled brush attachment.
