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

Gothic Revival seating from the Victorian era incorporates architectural elements from medieval design, including pointed arches, detailed foliate carving, heavy timber frames, and rich textiles such as velvet.

Pieces from this period were predominantly constructed from solid hardwoods like oak, features hand-carved ornamentation, traditional mortise and tenon joinery, and brass studding for upholstery.

Authentic items show signs of age on the underside frame, hand-carved asymmetrical variations, original joinery methods, and natural wear to the timber finish around the legs and stretchers.

Pair these structural chairs with a simple contemporary timber dining table or neutral minimalist backdrop to create a focal point through contrast.

Dust timber surfaces regularly with a soft cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish twice yearly; vacuum velvet gently using an upholstery attachment and address spills immediately with a dry cloth.
