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

Victorian cast iron garden furniture gained widespread popularity in the mid-nineteenth century, defined by intricate scrollwork motifs, substantial weight, and durable outdoor construction.

These seats typically combine heavy cast iron side frames with painted or varnished timber seat slats, often utilising weather-resistant woods such as teak or pine.

Authentic pieces exhibit crisp casting details, heavy structural weight, period bolt fixings securing the timber slats, and often layered historic paint finishes or natural surface patination.

These chairs can be integrated into conservatories, sunrooms, or outdoor stone terraces alongside modern planting, natural linen textiles, and stone architectural elements.

Inspect metalwork periodically for surface rust, treat areas of oxidisation, and treat the wooden slats with outdoor oils or waxes to protect against weather degradation.
