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

Developed during the early 18th century, the corner chair, also termed a roundabout chair, features a square frame positioned diagonally with a curved horseshoe backrest designed to fit into corners or function as a reading and writing chair.

These chairs were predominantly crafted using dense European hardwoods such as oak, mahogany, or walnut, often fitted with a removable drop-in seat upholstered in needlepoint, wool tapestry, or leather.

Authentic period examples feature hand-cut mortise and tenon joinery, wood pegging, subtle surface variations from hand-planing, and natural patination on the lower stretchers and handrests.

A corner chair functions effectively as a structural accent piece within a study alcove, hallway, or reading corner, adding historical contrast against contemporary backdrops.

Dust the timber surfaces regularly with a dry cloth, apply a high-grade beeswax polish along the grain annually, and keep the upholstered seat away from direct sunlight to prevent fibre fading.
