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.

This 18th-century Hepplewhite period armchair uses dark brown mahogany with a polished finish. The shaped top rail displays a carved bellflower pendant above a pierced vase-shaped splat. Serpentine open arms flank a stuffover seat covered in Colefax and Fowler Carlotta fabric with tomato, teal and off-white diamond patterns. The straight frame stands on square chamfered legs united by an H-stretcher base, showing natural timber grain variation across the wooden components. It measures 91 cm high, 61 cm wide and 51 cm deep. Position this seating piece in a living room, study or bedroom as a desk chair or accent seat. The traditional styling suits period interiors, English country house settings and traditional dining spaces. Users sit comfortably upright for reading, working at a table or relaxing. The open armrests and sturdy stretcher construction provide reliable daily support while adding heritage character to domestic spaces.

FAQs

Named after 18th-century cabinetmaker George Hepplewhite, this style is defined by neoclassical proportions, curved top rails, pierced back splats, and refined carved motifs such as wheat sheaves or leaves.

Georgian armchairs were predominantly crafted from dense mahogany, featuring hand-cut mortise and tenon joinery, corner blocks for frame stability, and webbed seat foundations.

Authentic period pieces display evidence of hand-plane marks, irregular hand-carved details, timber shrinkage consistent with age, and traditional joinery techniques along the seat rails.

A single carver chair functions effectively as an accent piece at a contemporary desk, positioned in an entryway, or paired alongside upholstered modern seating to provide historical contrast.

Dust surfaces regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a high-grade beeswax polish annually, ensuring the timber is kept away from direct heat sources and fluctuating humidity.
