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 prie-dieu chair is a specialized low-seated chair designed for private devotional prayer, featuring an elongated backrest with a padded top intended for resting the arms while kneeling.

These chairs were typically constructed using dense hardwoods such as mahogany, rosewood, or walnut, featuring hand-carved detailing, padded upholstery with brass studs, and metal or brass castors on the front legs.

Authentic period examples demonstrate traditional joinery on the underframe, original brass castors with period steel screws, hand-carved decorative motifs, and a noticeably lower seat height than standard side chairs.

Position the chair as a decorative accent in a bedroom corner, hallway, or home library, where its tall profile and carved wood frame add architectural texture alongside neutral wall finishes.

Dust the timber carving regularly with a soft dry cloth, apply natural beeswax annually along the grain to preserve the mahogany finish, and vacuum fabric upholstery using a low-suction soft brush attachment.
