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.

FAQs

The George I period, spanning from 1714 to 1727, is characterised by a transition from heavy, rectilinear forms to lighter designs featuring curved lines, cabriole legs, and the increasing use of native woods like elm and walnut.

Cabinet makers of this era frequently utilised native English hardwoods such as elm, oak, and walnut, often pairing sturdy frame construction with drop-in seats upholstered in wool, needlework, or damask.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit period-appropriate joinery such as hand-cut tenons, timber shrinkage consistent with age, patination from centuries of use, and specific structural traits like vase-shaped splats and H-stretchers.

Mixing historical seating with modern architecture creates a balanced scheme; pair these chairs with a minimalist dining table or position them as accent pieces against neutral walls to highlight their craftsmanship.

Maintain timber condition by keeping pieces away from direct sunlight and heat sources, and apply microcrystalline wax sparingly to nourish the wood without damaging the historic finish.
