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.

Regency style dining chairs are defined by Neoclassical lines, reeded legs, concave bar backs, and flame mahogany veneers. Designs from this era draw inspiration from ancient Greco-Roman forms, featuring clean vertical proportions and restrained geometric carved splats.

Primary woods include dense West Indian mahogany and rosewood, often paired with flame mahogany veneers on back splats. Construction relies on traditional mortise and tenon joinery, corner block bracing beneath the seat frame, and hand-cut reeding along the forelegs.

Authentic pieces feature crisp hand-carved reeding, patinated timber undersides showing original saw marks, and maker stamps or paper trade labels affixed to the interior seat rails or under-framing.

Regency chairs can be styled around a modern minimalist dining table or paired with contemporary neutral upholstery fabrics to balance rich mahogany wood tones against understated wall finishes.

Timber surfaces should be dusted with a soft dry cloth and treated periodically with a beeswax polish. Upholstered drop-in seats should be kept clear of direct sunlight and cleaned using fabric-appropriate solutions.
