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.

Armchairs from the early 19th century often draw inspiration from George III, Chippendale, and Regency designs. Common characteristics include carved pierced splats, flowing shaped armrests, solid mahogany frame construction, and drop-in or fixed upholstered seats tailored for use at a writing bureau.

Dense West Indian or South American mahogany was preferred for its fine grain, strength, and rich colour. Frame joints were secured with traditional mortise and tenon construction, while seats were upholstered using natural wool needlepoint, horsehair padding, and linen webbing.

Authentic period chairs display hand-cut joinery, slight irregularities from hand-sawing on underside rails, and age-related oxidisation in unvarnished areas. Original drop-in seat frames typically show hand-planed softwood elements and hand-forged or early machine-cut iron screws.

An antique carver or desk chair works well placed alongside a modern minimalist desk, inside a reading nook, or as a accent piece in a contemporary hallway. Combining dark polished timber with muted walls creates visual contrast and anchors the room.

Keep the timber frame away from direct heat sources to prevent shrinkage or joint loosening, and apply a natural beeswax polish annually. Needlepoint fabric should be vacuumed gently using a soft brush attachment and kept out of harsh sunlight to prevent colour fading.
