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.

Originating in the 17th century, joint stools were constructed by joiners using mortise and tenon joints, serving as primary seating before chairs became widespread in domestic settings.

Pieces from this era were primarily crafted from native English oak, featuring turned legs, heavy timber stretchers, and peg joinery without the use of metal screws or modern glues.

Authentic period items show evidence of hand-hewn timber, irregular turned details, exposed wooden dowel pegs, and uneven wear along the lower stretchers where feet rested.

An oak footstool serves as an accent piece beside an armchair, placed near a fireplace hearth, or positioned in an entryway to add texture and historical contrast to contemporary decor.

Apply natural beeswax sparingly to the timber framework annually, and gently clean the fabric top using a soft brush attachment on a low-suction vacuum.
