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.
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.

George III desk chairs, dating from the late 18th to early 19th century, typically feature solid mahogany construction, shaped top rails, curved arm supports, hand-carved back splats, and leather or woven seats designed for library and office use.

Craftsmen during the Georgian period used dense Cuban or West Indian mahogany for frames due to its stability and dark grain, paired with leather upholstery, brass tack trim, and internal hand-cut mortise and tenon joinery.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-carved decorative motifs, irregular hand-sawn timber marks on unexposed undersides, natural surface oxidisation, traditional corner block reinforcements, and turned or tapered leg profiles.

A pair of mahogany desk chairs can be placed alongside a modern writing desk, styled as flank seating on either side of a console, or incorporated into a home library to contrast clean contemporary architecture with rich timber tones.

Timber surfaces should be preserved with regular applications of natural beeswax, avoiding direct sunlight and radiators. Leather upholstery requires periodic wiping with a dry cloth and conditioning with a dedicated leather balm.
