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

Georgian high chairs were constructed scaled down for children, often featuring a convertible two-piece design where an armchair sits securely atop a matching low table base.

Cabinetmakers primarily employed dense woods such as mahogany or oak, utilizing traditional mortise and tenon joinery alongside upholstered seats padded with horsehair.

Authentic period examples display hand-cut joinery, asymmetrical hand-planed surfaces, natural oxidisation in unexposed areas, and original proportioning distinct from Victorian reproductions.

These compact functional pieces serve as distinctive accent items in hallways, reading nooks, or dining rooms, often displayed as standalone historical decorative elements.

Dust regularly with a soft microfibre cloth and apply a beeswax polish annually, keeping the piece away from direct heat sources and fluctuating humidity.
