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.

Authentic 19th-century examples display hand-carved details, traditional joint construction, natural wear along the footrails, and patinated metalwork. Variations in timber tone and hand-planed surface textures further distinguish period pieces from reproduction furniture.

Sculptural horseshoe chairs function effectively as accent seating alongside contemporary sofas or flanking a console table. Their strong architectural profile creates balanced visual contrast when placed within minimalist or eclectic design schemes.

Clean timber surfaces with a soft microfibre cloth and apply beeswax sparingly to preserve the wood finish. Avoid placing furniture near direct heat sources to prevent timber shrinkage, and wipe metal mounts gently to prevent unwanted oxidisation.

These chairs were crafted from dense hardwoods such as Elm, Rosewood (Zitan), or Huanghuali using complex mortise and tenon joinery without nails. Decorative brass or iron hardware was frequently integrated to reinforce stress points and frame elements.

Known traditionally as Quanyi, horseshoe back chairs originated during the Song Dynasty and became prominent in Ming and Qing dynasty furniture. Their continuous rounded crest rail symbolised sky and heaven, representing status and refined craftsmanship in traditional Chinese households.
