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

Victorian balloon back side chairs feature an open, continuous backboard frame resembling a hot air balloon, popularised in the mid-19th century for formal dining rooms and parlours.

Craftsmen typically employed dense hardwoods such as rosewood, mahogany, or walnut, held together with mortise and tenon joinery and finished with hand-carved details and fabric upholstery.

Authentic pieces feature distinct dark grain striping characteristic of rosewood, hand-carved scroll or floral motifs, visible hand-cut joint construction, and natural age patination.

Place side chairs as accent seating in hallways, position them alongside a dressing table, or pair them with a modern dining table to establish visual contrast.

Dust surfaces regularly with a dry lint-free cloth, apply natural beeswax polish twice per year, and position the timber away from direct sunlight or heating radiators.
