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 captains chair, often associated with Victorian office and maritime settings, is characterised by a low, curved backrest, a horseshoe-shaped crest rail supported by turned spindles, and a solid wooden seat.

These chairs were predominantly crafted from dense hardwoods such as oak, mahogany, beech, and elm, selected for structural integrity and durability in heavy commercial or domestic use.

Authentic period examples display signs of hand-turned wood joinery, original pegged construction, natural age-related patination on high-touch areas, and solid wood seat construction rather than modern plywood.

A complete set can be positioned around a large rustic dining table or utilized individually as accent desk seating within modern office spaces and library settings.

Dust surfaces regularly with a soft cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish twice yearly to preserve the wood moisture and protect the original patinated surface finish.
