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.

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.

Late Victorian and Edwardian seating often drew inspiration from eighteenth-century neoclassical designs, particularly Sheraton and Hepplewhite styles. These chairs frequently feature delicate marquetry, urn or floral motifs, and slender tapered legs crafted from dark hardwoods like rosewood.

Cabinetmakers primarily used solid or veneered rosewood for its dense grain and rich hue, contrasting it with boxwood, holly, satinwood, or bone for the decorative inlay. Frame joinery relied on traditional mortise and tenon construction for durability.

Authentic period pieces display fine hand-cut marquetry rather than printed overlays, alongside natural signs of age such as slight patination in the wood grain. Inspecting the underside of the frame often reveals hand-cut timber joints and older upholstery tack marks.

These side chairs can be placed alongside a modern minimalist dining table to create an eclectic, layered aesthetic. Alternatively, individual chairs work well as standalone accent seating in hallways, dressing rooms, or adjacent to a desk.

Keep the wood away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent the veneers and inlay from drying or lifting. Apply a high-quality beeswax polish sparingly along the grain to nourish the timber and protect the polished surface.
