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.

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 the early 20th century, Edwardian tub chairs evolved from traditional barrel chairs, characterised by a continuous curved backrest that flows seamlessly into the armrests. They frequently incorporate classical revival elements, lightness of frame, and delicate decorative inlays.

These chairs are predominantly crafted from dense hardwoods such as mahogany or rosewood, often featuring satinwood or boxwood marquetry inlays. Construction typically utilises traditional mortise and tenon joinery alongside hand-stuffed webbed seats.

Authentic period examples display hand-cut marquetry rather than modern printed veneers, original timber patination on the underside of the frame, and proportioned hand-turned or cabriole legs consistent with early 1900s craftsmanship.

An antique tub chair functions as a versatile accent piece, serving as a desk chair alongside a modern writing table, a corner feature in a bedroom, or paired with minimalist side tables in a quiet reading nook.

Dust the timber regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish annually to protect the wood and inlay. Keep the chair away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent timber shrinkage and fabric fading.
