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.

Secure Transit

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.

The Sustainable Choice

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.

A set of eight nineteenth-century Chippendale style dining chairs comprises six single chairs and two carvers in warm brown mahogany. The timber displays a polished finish with visible grain. The carvers measure 94 cm high, 56 cm wide, and 53 cm deep, and the single chairs measure 90 cm high. The backs feature elaborate pierced fretwork splats, carved crest rails, and shaped arms on the carvers. All chairs stand on square legs ending in spade feet and have drop-in seats upholstered in patterned pink and cream silk fabric. This suite fits an English Country House dining room setting around a large table, accommodating family meals and formal dinner parties. The sturdy wooden frames and comfortable padded seats provide practical everyday seating for eight people. Placement around a traditional mahogany dining table creates a cohesive traditional arrangement suitable for daily dining or entertaining guests.

FAQs

Chippendale style dining chairs are characterised by openwork back splats, ornate hand-carved motifs, and sturdy mahogany construction inspired by mid-eighteenth-century English cabinetmaker Thomas Chippendale.

Dense hardwoods such as mahogany and walnut are primary materials, often paired with woven fabric, damask, or leather upholstery for drop-in or fixed seat pads.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-cut joinery such as mortise and tenon joints, intricate hand-carved fretwork splats, natural timber oxidation, and proportioned cabriole or straight square legs.

Pairing dark mahogany Chippendale chairs with a minimalist light oak or marble table creates a balanced contrast, while neutral contemporary upholstery fabrics help integrate classic silhouettes into modern spaces.

Dust wood frames regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, apply a beeswax polish annually following the grain, and keep chairs away from direct heat sources to prevent timber cracking.
