Walnut

Walnut is a hard, dense, tight- grained wood that polishes to a very smooth finish. It is a popular and attractive wood whose colour ranges from near white in the sapwood to a dark hew in the heartwood. When dried in a kiln, walnut wood tends to develop a dull brown colour, but when air-dried can become a rich purplish-brown. Because of its colour, hardness and grain, it is a prized furniture and carving wood. Walnut veneer was highly priced and the cost would reflect the ‘fanciness’ of the veneer – the more decorative, then the more expensive and desirable.

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.

Chairs from this period frequently feature solid hardwood frames, such as walnut, paired with high rectangular backs, hand-turned legs, stretchers for stability, and leather upholstery detailed with decorative brass studding.

These chairs are constructed from solid walnut timber, genuine leather upholstery, brass stud fittings, and brass castors affixed to the front legs.

Authentic pieces demonstrate traditional joinery techniques, natural age-related patina to the walnut frame, hand-carved turning, and traditional stuffing materials beneath the upholstery.

A set of dark leather chairs adds visual weight and historical depth when paired with a contemporary oak or stone dining table, balancing modern minimal aesthetics with classical craftsmanship.

Dust walnut frames regularly with a soft cloth and apply beeswax nourishers periodically. Treat the leather with specialised hide food to prevent drying, keeping the chairs away from direct heat sources.
