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

An open armchair features arms that do not have solid upholstered sides, exposing the timber framework between the seat and armrests. This design evolved in 18th-century Europe to provide comfortable seating while maintaining a lighter visual weight.

Traditionally, dense solid walnut or walnut veneers were crafted with mortise and tenon joinery. Upholstery utilised natural materials such as horsehair padding, burlap webbing, and brass stud detailing along the frame edges.

Look for hand-carved details on the cabriole legs and scroll arms, genuine age-related wear on contact areas, and hand-cut joinery beneath the seat frame. Period pieces will also show irregular, natural patination along the wooden surfaces.

Pair the rich wood tones and classic silhouette with clean-lined modern furniture, such as a minimalist desk or contemporary side table. Adding contrasting neutral textiles or crisp wall treatments helps highlight the carved architectural details.

Dust the wood regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply beeswax polish annually along the wood grain. Vacuum the upholstery gently using a soft brush attachment, keeping the chair away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent timber warping or fabric fading.
