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

Originating in the late seventeenth century, William & Mary furniture is characterised by Dutch and Flemish influences, featuring tall vertical proportions, intricate turned woodwork, scrolled armrests, and rich upholstery.

Frames were primarily crafted from dense hardwoods such as walnut or oak, supported by hand-turned legs and stretchers, and upholstered in velvet, wool tapestry, or leather secured with decorative brass studs.

Look for signs of hand-carving alongside precise machine tool marks, natural patina on exposed walnut, aged brass tacking, and traditional joinery techniques such as mortise and tenon joints.

Position the chair as a standalone accent piece in a quiet reading corner, place it alongside a minimalist side table, or pair it with modern art to create a balanced contrast between historical and contemporary design.

Vacuum the velvet regularly using a soft brush attachment to prevent dust build-up, and clean timber frames with a soft cloth while applying natural beeswax periodically to preserve the wood.
