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

Bobbin turned furniture features wooden components shaped on a lathe into a repeating series of rounded, spool-like forms. Originating in seventeenth-century Europe, the style experienced major revivals during the Victorian and Edwardian periods.

These armchairs are constructed from dense hardwoods such as oak, walnut, or beech to accommodate precise lathe turnings. Seats are frequently paired with woven tapestry, rush, or drop-in upholstered cushions.

Authentic period examples display subtle variations in the hand-turned spool dimensions, traditional mortise and tenon joinery, historical wear along high-touch areas like armrests, and original brass castors.

A bobbin turned armchair introduces geometric texture and historical character to modern spaces when paired with contemporary plain linen textiles, minimalist side tables, or neutral room schemes.

Maintain the wood finish by dusting regularly with a dry, soft cloth and applying natural beeswax into turned crevices periodically to preserve the patina and prevent timber desiccating.
