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

Designed during the 18th and 19th centuries, height adjustable music chairs feature an integrated mechanism, often a threaded wooden screw, allowing the musician to alter seat height relative to an instrument.

These chairs were predominantly constructed from dense hardwoods such as mahogany or rosewood, incorporating hand-turned wooden screw threads and padded seats upholstered in tapestry, woven wool, or leather.

Authentic period examples generally display hand-carved threaded wooden shafts rather than modern metal screws, traditional mortise and tenon joinery, turned legs, and age-consistent wear on the adjustment thread.

An antique music chair functions effectively as an accent seat in a library, hallway, or study, pairing well with contemporary artwork or desk arrangements to create textural contrast.

Maintain the smooth operation of the wooden screw thread using natural beeswax rather than liquid lubricants, clean the timber surfaces with a soft microfibre cloth, and position the upholstery away from direct sunlight.
