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 England during the early 18th century, Windsor chairs became standard country seating characterised by turned legs and back spindles inserted directly into a solid timber seat.

Windsor chairs were typically constructed using a combination of native woods, featuring a shaped elm seat for durability, bentwood ash or yew top rails, and turned beech or oak legs.

Authentic period examples display wedge-anchored leg joints driven through the wooden seat, hand-worked seat contours, and natural wear marks on the stretchers and armrests.

A Windsor armchair functions effectively as a standalone accent piece in an entrance hall, alongside a modern writing desk, or incorporated into an eclectic dining set.

Maintain the finish by dusting regularly with a lint-free cloth and applying a clear beeswax polish annually while keeping the item away from direct heat sources.
