Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

FAQs

William IV period dining chairs, produced between 1830 and 1837, feature transitional design elements between Regency elegance and early Victorian solidity. Typical features include curved top rails, carved horizontal splats, turned or fluted front legs, and rich timber veneers.

Fine 19th-century dining chairs were crafted using solid rosewood or thick rosewood veneers over hardwood frames. Seat construction typically incorporated horsehair padding, webbing, and woven upholstery fabrics such as velvet or damask.

Authentic pieces feature hand-carved decorative motifs, traditional mortise and tenon joinery, and distinct dark grain patterns characteristic of Brazilian rosewood. Genuine period chairs also display natural oxidation and wear on the unpolished undersides of the frames.

These dark wood chairs create visual interest when paired with minimalist timber or contemporary glass dining tables. Re-upholstering the drop-in seats in neutral linen or geometric textiles allows them to blend seamlessly into contemporary colour schemes.

Rosewood furniture should be kept away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight to prevent veneer movement and colour fading. Regular dusting with a soft cloth and an annual application of beeswax polish will help protect the timber and maintain the patination.
