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

Qing dynasty style chairs are noted for intricate hand-carved relief work, featuring symbolic motifs such as dragons, clouds, and longevity symbols. They often utilise dense dark hardwoods and feature framed splats with contoured armrests.

Traditional Chinese seating was typically constructed from native hardwoods such as zitan, hongmu, or rosewood, known for their density and rich tone. Seats were often solid wood panel, woven cane, or later fitted with fabric cushions.

Authentic pieces demonstrate mortise-and-tenon joinery without metal nails, natural wear on touchpoints like arm terminals, and hand-carved detail with subtle variations rather than machine-cut uniformity.

These sculptural chairs serve as strong visual focal points when placed symmetrically in an entryway, flanking a side table, or positioned in a contemporary study to contrast clean modern lines.

Dust regularly with a soft lint-free cloth and keep the timber away from direct heat sources to prevent shrinkage or cracking. Apply a natural beeswax polish occasionally to preserve the wood finish.
