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.

These chairs represent traditional English vernacular furniture, constructed by regional craftsmen using locally sourced hardwoods like oak for frame strength and elm for durable solid components.

Craftsmen utilised mortise and tenon joinery alongside hand-turned front legs, securing solid oak frames with elm timber selected for its resistance to splitting.

Look for signs of hand-planing, slight asymmetry from manual lathe turning, historical peg construction, and uneven wear patterns on armrests and stretchers corresponding to age.

Position the chair alongside contemporary upholstered seating in a living space, place it in a reading nook, or display it as a functional accent piece in an entryway.

Dust regularly with a soft cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish annually, ensuring the wood is kept away from direct heat sources to prevent shrinkage.
