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.

Hepplewhite Revival furniture reimagines the late 18th-century designs of cabinetmaker George Hepplewhite. The style is characterised by graceful proportions, delicate carved splats, open armrests, and distinctive shield, heart, or oval backrests.

These armchairs are typically constructed from dense woods such as mahogany or satinwood, often finished with a warm wax polish. Seats are commonly upholstered in woven silk, damask, or cotton fabrics using traditional drop-in or padded seat frames.

Authentic period and quality revival pieces feature traditional mortise and tenon joinery, hand-carved back details, and subtle wood grain variation. Inspecting the underside reveals hand-cut framing marks and age-appropriate wear to the timber.

Place the chair as an accent piece alongside a modern writing desk or within an empty hallway corner. Pairing dark mahogany woodwork with neutral textiles or minimalist surroundings creates a balanced contrast between historic craftsmanship and modern design.

Dust the woodwork regularly using a soft microfibre cloth following the direction of the wood grain. Protect the timber finish by applying a natural beeswax polish annually, keeping the piece away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent shrinkage or fading.
