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

Portuguese furniture from this era frequently combines Iberian Baroque forms with colonial trade influences, featuring rich dark woods, woven cane panelling, and detailed bone or ivory marquetry.

Craftsmen primarily utilised solid walnut or native hardwood for the frame, paired with woven rattan cane for the back panels and seats, and shaped bone inlays along the central splat.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-pegged mortise and tenon joinery, subtle variations from hand-sawn timber, genuine age-related wear to lower stretchers, and natural oxidation on the wood finish.

A pair can be arranged flanking a hallway console table, used as accent seating within a quiet library corner, or positioned at the head of a minimalist contemporary dining set.

Dust the timber regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, apply natural beeswax sparingly to preserve the wood finish, and ensure cane panels remain in stable humidity to avoid brittleness.
