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.

Seating from this era often blends traditional Chinese structural forms with intricate pierced carving, incorporating motifs such as flowers, scrollwork, and auspicious symbols into dark dense timbers.

Craftsmen historically favoured dense hardwoods such as rosewood (zitan or hongmu) and chicken-wing wood (jichimu), constructed using frame-and-panel techniques and complex mortise-and-tenon joinery without nails.

Authentic pieces feature floating panel seats to allow wood expansion, subtle variation in hand-carved relief details, smooth patination around touched areas, and precision wood joinery rather than metal fasteners.

They serve effectively as architectural accent pieces in entrance halls, living rooms, or modern minimalist spaces where their dark wood and intricate silhouettes offer strong visual contrast.

Maintain stable humidity levels to prevent wood shrinkage, dust regularly with a clean microfibre cloth, and occasionally apply a quality natural beeswax polish to protect the timber finish.
