Strictly Vetted Dealers

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 Gainsborough chair, also known as a broad arm chair, is an 18th-century English armchair characterised by a wide seat, high upholstered back, and open carved wooden arms.

George III armchairs were typically constructed with solid mahogany framing, traditional horsehair upholstery stuffing, and brass stud trim along the textile borders.

Authentic George III library chairs feature hand-carved mahogany wood detailing, period mortise-and-tenon joinery, appropriate timber weight, and natural age-related oxidation on the wood.

A Gainsborough chair works well as a focal point in a contemporary study or living room, paired alongside a minimalist side table or a modern reading lamp to contrast traditional and modern elements.

Maintain the mahogany frame by applying a high-quality beeswax polish annually, while keeping the piece away from direct sunlight and heat sources to protect both the wood finish and fabric.
