Archival Detail
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.

Originating in the late seventeenth century, the William and Mary style is characterised by Flemish and Dutch influences, featuring intricate wood carving, turned legs, stretchers, and high upholstered backs for comfort.

Frames were primarily crafted from dense hardwoods such as walnut or oak, while upholstery consisted of genuine leather or rich damask fabrics secured with brass studding over natural horsehair padding.

Look for hand-carved scroll armrests, double-doweled joinery, turned stretchers connecting the legs, and natural patination on walnut timber that reflects centuries of wax polished care.

Place the chair beside a minimalist desk or in an empty corner paired with a modern floor lamp to create a textured reading nook that bridges historic charm and contemporary design.

Treat the leather periodically with a specialist leather balm to prevent drying, and dust the carved walnut frame regularly before applying a light layer of beeswax along the grain.
