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

Ladderback chairs feature a series of horizontal carved rails across the back frame, inspired by 18th-century Chippendale designs and revived during the Victorian era.

These chairs are crafted from solid mahogany timber, featuring mortise and tenon joinery, corner blocks, and padded seats upholstered in woven tapestry or velvet fabrics.

Look for hand-carved decoration such as shell motifs on the back splats, square H-frame stretchers for stability, and signs of genuine age in the timber patination and underside joinery.

Place a single chair as an accent piece in a hallway, pair it with a modern desk, or mix it with contemporary dining chairs around a minimalist table for an eclectic aesthetic.

Dust the timber regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish annually along the wood grain, while vacuuming the tapestry seat gently with a soft brush attachment.
