Archival Detail
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.

George III style seating, dating from 1760 to 1820, is characterized by refined mahogany construction, hand-carved pierced back splats, balanced classical proportions, and straight or cabriole legs often joined by H-stretchers.

These armchairs were primarily crafted from dense West Indian or Cuban mahogany, utilizing oak or pine for internal seat frames. Upholstery traditionally incorporated horsehair padding, linen webbings, and hand-tacked upholstery fabrics.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-cut mortise and tenon joinery, slight irregularities from hand-planing on unseen surfaces, original wood oxidisation beneath the seat rails, and hand-carved decorative motifs rather than machine-moulded details.

A Georgian armchair can serve as a standalone accent chair beside a contemporary side table, function as a desk chair paired with a minimalist modern writing desk, or be placed in a hallway to provide historical contrast.

Maintain the timber by dusting regularly with a soft cloth and applying a clear beeswax polish once or twice a year along the grain. Keep the chair away from direct heat sources and radiators to prevent timber shrinkage or splitting.
