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.

George II style furniture, popularised in 18th-century Britain, features intricate wood carving, Rococo motifs such as acanthus leaves and shell details, pierced back splats, and sturdy cabriole legs.

These armchairs are typically constructed from solid mahogany, chosen for its durability and dense grain suitable for deep carving, and fitted with woven textile or drop-in upholstered seats.

Authentic pieces feature hand-carved joinery, original patination on dense Cuban or West Indian mahogany, hand-cut dovetails or tenon joints, and natural age-related wear on contact areas.

A carved mahogany armchair serves as a strong statement piece when paired with clean-lined modern sofas, minimalist side tables, or placed as a standalone accent chair in a hallway.

Maintain carved mahogany by dusting regularly with a soft dry cloth and applying natural beeswax polish annually, ensuring the piece is kept away from direct heat sources and excessive moisture.
