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

Spindleback chairs are characterised by vertical turned wooden rods mounted between horizontal back rails. During the Victorian era, regional craftsmen produced these chairs in quantity using local hardwoods like elm, ash, and oak.

The frames were typically made from native hardwoods such as elm, ash, or beech due to their flexibility and strength. The seats were hand-woven using natural freshwater rush, twisted into tight cords and wrapped around the seat rails.

Authentic pieces exhibit signs of hand-tooling, original pegged joinery, uneven wear on the stretchers from feet resting on them, and natural oxidisation of the wood around joinery points.

These chairs complement contemporary oak or painted timber dining tables, providing textural contrast against modern minimalist backdrops or traditional rustic settings.

Rush seats require occasional light misting with water to maintain flexibility and prevent brittleness. Timber frames should be cleaned with a damp cloth and treated periodically with beeswax to preserve the patina.
