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

George III dining chairs, dating from the late 18th to early 19th century, are defined by neoclassical proportions, straight or subtly tapered legs, and detailed backrest designs such as splats, lattice work, or horizontal slats.

Primary woods included Cuban and West Indian mahogany, chosen for strength and rich grain patterns. Secondary woods like pine or oak were used for internal framing, paired with drop-in seats upholstered in horsehair or woven fabrics.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-cut mortise and tenon joinery, irregular hand-planed surfaces beneath the frame, original corner blocks, and natural age oxidation on the underside of the timber.

Pairing a set of dark mahogany chairs with a minimalist oak or marble dining table creates visual contrast. Updating seat upholstery with neutral linen or contemporary geometric fabrics integrates historic seating into modern decorative schemes.

Keep mahogany chairs away from direct sunlight and central heating radiators to prevent wood shrinkage or bleaching. Clean timber surfaces with a soft microfibre cloth and apply beeswax once or twice a year.
