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.

FAQs

A continuous arm Windsor features a single piece of steam-bent wood that forms both the armrests and the back bow, attached directly into a shaped wooden seat.

They were typically constructed using a combination of native timbers, such as an elm seat for strength, ash or yew for the bentwood components, and beech or birch for the turned legs and spindles.

Authentic pieces exhibit signs of hand-tooling, such as adze marks on the saddled seat, wedged tenon joints passing through the seat, and natural wear patterns consistent with age.

This piece works well as an accent seating option in a living room or study, pairing natural wood textures with minimalist surroundings to highlight its craftsmanship.

Maintain the wood by keeping it away from direct heat sources and sunlight, and periodically apply microcrystalline wax to nourish and protect the finish.
