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

Mid-19th-century library chairs typically feature sturdy hardwood frames, rounded horseshoe backrests, padded armrests, and turned front legs designed for stability and comfort during extended periods of reading.

These chairs were predominantly crafted using dense hardwoods such as walnut, mahogany, or oak, and were upholstered with horsehair padding covered in velvet, wool, or leather.

Authentic pieces display hand-carved joinery details, natural wood grain patination beneath the finish, solid timber weight, and period-appropriate turned or carved leg profiles.

Position the chair alongside a contemporary writing desk, within a reading nook paired with minimal floor lighting, or as an accent seat in a study space.

Dust the woodwork regularly with a soft dry cloth, apply natural beeswax polish annually to protect the finish, and gently vacuum velvet upholstery using a soft brush attachment.
