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.

Mid-18th-century walnut side chairs typically feature vase or baluster-shaped back splats, curved crest rails, and cabriole front legs terminating in pad feet. Originating during the Queen Anne and early Georgian eras, these designs emphasize natural timber figure and balanced proportions.

Chairs from this era were constructed using solid walnut or walnut veneers over oak frames, held together with hand-cut mortise and tenon joinery. Seats were made either as solid timber planks or drop-in upholstered frames supported by corner blocks.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-saw marks on unpolished undersides, irregular joint pin placement, and age-related oxidation on exposed unvarnished wood. The patina should reflect decades of handling around the upper back rail, seat edges, and lower legs.

A Georgian walnut side chair functions effectively as a standalone feature piece in a hallway, at a contemporary writing desk, or in a bedroom corner. The warm brown tones complement neutral wall palettes and minimalist timber furniture.

Position the chair away from direct heat sources and sunlight to avoid timber shrinkage and finish fading. Dust regularly with a clean microfiber cloth and apply a thin coat of natural beeswax polish once per year along the grain.
