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

A Victorian captains chair, also known as a smokers chair or low-back Windsor chair, is a wooden armchair featuring a curved horseshoe continuous armrest, vertical turned spindles, and a solid carved saddle seat.

Traditional English captains chairs frequently combined yew wood for the steam-bent armrests and turned elements with dense elm wood for the solid contoured seat.

Authentic nineteenth-century examples display hand-turned spindles, wedged tenon joints visible through the armbow or legs, and authentic wear to the original finish around the handrests and seat.

A captains chair works as an accent seat paired with a classic writing desk, in a dedicated home office, or placed alongside traditional timber furniture in a hallway or library.

Maintain timber furniture by dusting with a soft cloth, keeping it clear of direct heat sources, and applying a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year to preserve the surface.
