Thomas Chippendale

(1718 - 1779) was a London cabinet-maker and furniture designer in the mid-Georgian, English Rococo, and Neoclassical styles.

In 1754 he published a book of his designs, titled The Gentleman and Cabinet Maker's Director. The designs are regarded as reflecting the current London fashion for furniture for that period and were used by other cabinet makers outside London. The Director shows four main styles: 1. English with deep carving, 2. elaborate French rococo in the style of Louis XV furniture, 3. Chinese style with latticework and lacquer, and 4. Gothic with pointed arches, quatrefoils and fret-worked legs.

Chippendale was much more than just a cabinet maker, he was an interior designer who advised on soft furnishings and even the colour a room should be painted. Chippendale often took on large-scale commissions from aristocratic clients. Twenty-six of these commissions have been identified.

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.

Named after the 18th-century cabinetmaker Thomas Chippendale, these chairs typically feature intricately carved back splats, serpentine top rails, cabriole legs, and distinctive ball-and-claw feet.

Pieces from around 1900 were predominantly crafted from solid mahogany, featuring hand-carved back splats, sturdy mortise and tenon joinery, and leather or fabric drop-in upholstery.

Look for crisp hand-carving along the top rail and cabriole legs, deep natural patination on the mahogany, and signs of traditional joinery rather than modern uniform machine construction.

Pairing carved mahogany chairs with a minimalist stone or glass dining table creates a balanced contrast between traditional timber craftsmanship and modern design lines.

Dust regularly with a soft cloth, apply high-quality beeswax twice a year along the wood grain, keep away from direct heat sources, and nourish leather upholstery with specialized conditioner.
