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.

17th-century Italian Baroque armchairs are known for high backrests, substantial timber frames, and ornate hand-carved decoration, including scrolls and acanthus foliage.

Cabinetmakers primarily utilised native hardwoods such as walnut and oak for the frame, paired with natural fibre fillings, linen webbings, and woven fabrics or leather upholstery.

Authentic period examples demonstrate hand-hewn joins, tool marks on unexposed wooden surfaces, uneven wear consistent with age, and hand-forged iron nails or wooden dowels.

Positioning a carved historical armchair as a standalone accent piece creates contrast against minimalist backwalls, architectural plasterwork, or modern artwork.

Keep timber surfaces free of moisture, apply natural beeswax periodically, and clean textiles using soft brushes while keeping the item out of direct sunlight.
