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

Popularised during the 19th century, nursing chairs were designed with low seats and armless frames to accommodate women wearing heavy skirts or corsets while tending to infants.

Craftspeople constructed these chairs using dark hardwoods such as walnut, mahogany, or rosewood, paired with traditional hand-webbed seat frames and rich upholstery fabrics like velvet.

Authentic pieces display period construction details including hand-carved wood elements, original brass or ceramic castors, mortise-and-tenon joints, and natural patination on the timber.

A nursing chair works effectively as an accent seating option placed in a bedroom corner, dressing room, or alongside a hearth to provide historic visual texture.

Dust the polished wood frame regularly with a lint-free cloth, nourish the timber periodically with natural beeswax, and gently vacuum velvet upholstery using a brush attachment.
