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

Originating in 19th-century Europe, a Prie-Dieu chair is an ecclesiastical or private devotional seat featuring a low seat height and an elongated vertical back, designed primarily for kneeling during prayer.

Gothic Revival furniture typically features dense hardwoods such as rosewood, oak, or mahogany, often combined with brass castors and woven jacquard, tapestry, or needlepoint fabrics.

Authentic pieces feature architectural wood elements including carved finials, trefoil or pointed arches, turned column supports, original brass castors, and period joinery techniques.

This type of high-backed chair functions effectively as a tall accent piece in a bedroom, hallway, or study nook, introducing architectural height and historic pattern to contemporary spaces.

Wood surfaces should be cleaned with a dry microfibre cloth and conditioned periodically with natural beeswax, whilst keeping fabric upholstery away from direct sunlight to prevent UV degradation.
