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.

Bar back dining chairs from the Regency and William IV periods feature horizontal curved top rails and mid-rails across the backrest. Crafted predominantly from solid mahogany timber, these chairs typically showcase turned or sabre front legs and ergonomic proportioning designed for formal dining.

Chairs from this era were constructed using dense tropical mahogany joined with hand-cut mortise and tenon joints. The seat frames were designed to accommodate webbed upholstery or drop-in padded cushions finished in woven textiles, velvet, or horsehair fabric.

Authentic period chairs display subtle irregular hand-planing marks, natural shrinkage along timber joints, and genuine oxidisation on the underside of the frames. Look for hand-turned legs, original corner blocks inside the seat rails, and carved scrollwork on carver armrests.

Contrast dark timber dining sets by pairing them with contemporary light oak or marble dining tables. Placing rich mahogany seating against neutral walls or contemporary artwork creates an eclectic balance between historical craftsmanship and modern design.

Maintain the timber by dusting regularly with a soft lint-free cloth and applying beeswax polish once or twice a year in the direction of the grain. Keep the chairs away from direct sunlight and radiators to prevent timber shrinkage or fading of the upholstery fabric.
