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

A comb-back Windsor chair is characterised by a high backrest featuring vertical spindles topped by a horizontal cresting rail resembling a comb, often paired with a central pierced splat and a solid shaped wooden seat.

Windsor chairs were typically built using a combination of regional timbers, including ash or beech for steam-bent parts, elm for the contoured seat, and oak or fruitwood for the legs and stretcher rails.

Authentic period examples often display hand-planed saddle seats with visible tool marks underneath, wedge-tenon joints visible through the top of the seat board, and natural surface wear consistent with age.

Position the chair in an entry space or alongside clean-lined modern furniture to create visual contrast, accenting the natural grain with textured wool textiles or neutral cushions.

Keep the chair away from central heating radiators and direct sunlight to prevent timber shrinkage, clean regularly with a dry lint-free cloth, and apply clear beeswax polish once or twice a year.
