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

Designed by Philip Webb in the 1860s for Morris & Co., the Sussex chair was adapted from traditional vernacular country seating found in Sussex, becoming a staple of the Arts and Crafts movement.

These chairs feature turned beech wood frames, typically finished with a black stain or ebonised polish, paired with a hand-woven natural rush seat.

Key structural indicators include turned spindles set into horizontal back rails, lightweight turned uprights and stretchers, and traditional envelope-woven rush seat construction.

The lightweight frame and dark silhouette allow it to function as an accent chair in a hallway, bedroom corner, or placed alongside modern wooden dining tables.

Dust the wooden frame with a dry microfibre cloth and avoid placing the chair near direct heat sources; natural rush seats benefit from occasional light misting with water to maintain flexibility.
