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 19th and early 20th centuries, these chairs prioritise functional craftsmanship, exposed joinery, and natural materials such as solid oak, leather, and woven cane. They frequently incorporate adjustable backrests using metal or wooden drop-ratchets.

Framing was predominantly crafted from native hardwoods such as quarter-sawn oak or ash. Upholstery often featured thick leather, woven cane side panels, brass studding, and woollen woven fabrics.

Look for heavy solid timber construction, hand-cut mortise and tenon joinery, historical drop-ratchet reclining mechanisms behind the armrests, and makers marks or stamps beneath the seat rails.

Position the piece as a focal reading chair alongside a minimalist modern floor lamp, neutral linen sofas, and natural textured rugs to balance the heavy timber and dark leather tones.

Keep the wood nourished with clear beeswax polish applied along the grain, treat natural leather panels with specialized leather balm, and position the piece away from direct heat sources to prevent timber warping.
