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

Originating in 18th-century England, the Windsor chair evolved as regional vernacular seating constructed by local craftsmen. Winged variations emerged to protect the sitter from draughts in country homes, combining traditional spindle-back construction with extended side profile elements.

Traditional Windsor chairs utilise native British hardwoods. The thick seat is carved from elm due to its split-resistant interlocking grain, while the back spindles, arms, and turned legs are crafted from steam-bent ash or beech for structural flexibility.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-shaped saddle seats, wedged tenon joinery where the legs penetrate the seat top, uneven wear on turned stretchers, and natural oxidisation across the unvarnished wooden surfaces.

A wooden Windsor armchair serves as a tactile focal point when paired with modern linen cushions, positioned alongside minimalist side tables, or placed in a neutral reading corner to contrast modern architectural lines.

Preserve the wood by applying high-grade beeswax polish once or twice a year, wiping along the grain. Keep the chair away from direct heat sources and central heating radiators to prevent joint shrinkage or timber cracking.
