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 late 18th-century Britain, these chairs combined traditional country joinerysuch as a ladderback frame made of local woods like oak and elmwith early mechanical iron fixtures allowing the backrest to adjust into multiple angles for comfort.

These chairs were primarily constructed using native hardwoods such as solid oak and elm, held together with mortise and tenon joinery. The adjustable reclining mechanisms were typically hand-forged wrought iron or steel stays attached to the arms and backrest frame.

Authentic 18th-century pieces feature hand-shaped ladderback slats, hand-forged iron hardware with visible hand-hammered details, and original pegged joinery. Wood surfaces usually display natural wear patterns, historic patination, and uneven tool marks consistent with period craftsmanship.

Place the chair as a standalone accent piece in a quiet reading corner or alongside a clean-lined modern sofa to create texture and contrast. Pair it with a simple woven cushion or neutral wool rug to highlight the natural timber patination.

Dust the timber surfaces regularly with a soft cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish annually to nourish the wood without building up excessive residue. Keep the item away from direct heat sources and extreme humidity fluctuations to prevent cracking or warping.
