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

Islamic Revival furniture, prominent in the late nineteenth century, features intricate geometric patterns, star motifs, and elaborate bone or mother-of-pearl inlays inspired by traditional Middle Eastern and Ottoman craftsmanship.

Traditionally, solid hardwoods such as walnut or teak form the structural frame, which is recessed and set with hand-cut bone, mother-of-pearl, or ivory tesserae alongside contrasting wood stringing.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-carved joinery, slight variations across individual hand-cut inlay pieces, natural age patina on the underlying hardwood, and evidence of traditional animal glues rather than synthetic adhesives.

These graphic statement chairs serve as focal points in foyers, hallways, or living rooms, contrasting effectively against modern minimalist architecture and neutral colour palettes.

Keep the furniture away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent timber movement, dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, and apply natural wax polish sparingly without dislodging delicate inlay elements.
