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

Introduced in the mid-nineteenth century, balloon back dining chairs feature a distinct rounded backframe resembling an inflated balloon, often paired with cabriole or turned legs and decorative crest carvings.

Cabinetmakers during this period predominantly used dense woods like Cuban or Honduran mahogany, assembling frames using traditional mortise and tenon joints with hand-shaped carving and horsehair upholstery padding.

Authentic pieces display hand-carved detailing, natural timber oxidisation beneath the seat rails, traditional corner blocks, and evidence of hand-cut joinery rather than modern uniform fasteners.

Combining dark mahogany frames with contemporary neutral upholstery fabric allows Victorian chairs to contrast effectively alongside minimalist dining tables in eclectic or transitional spaces.

Timber frames should be dusted and polished with natural beeswax to preserve the patina, while keeping the furniture away from direct heat sources and high humidity to prevent wood shrinkage.
