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.

Welsh primitive stick Windsor chairs are vernacular seating forms characterised by socketed construction, where turned or shaved spindles and legs are mortised directly into a solid wooden seat board, topped with a comb or bow back.

These chairs typically feature a combination of locally sourced native hardwoods, often utilising dense elm or burr elm for the thick contoured seat, alongside ash, oak, or fruitwood for the legs, stretchers, and back spindles.

Authentic 18th-century examples exhibit hand-hewn surface textures, adzed seats, irregular wedged mortise-and-tenon joints, and natural wear patterns on lower stretchers and armrests.

Position a primitive stick chair as a sculptural focal piece in a modern hallway, beside a minimalist fireplace, or in a bedroom corner, allowing its organic form and patinated wood grain to contrast with modern surfaces.

Keep the chair away from direct heat sources and humid environments to prevent wood shrinkage, and regularly apply a high-quality beeswax polish to protect the original patina without removing historic surface character.
