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 sgabello is a distinct form of portable chair developed during the Italian Renaissance, typically crafted from solid wood with a shaped backrest, a slab seat, and decorative trestle-style supports.

These chairs were predominantly carved from durable hardwoods such as oak or walnut, often featuring relief carvings, painted heraldic motifs, or inlaid timber details.

Authentic period and revival pieces exhibit traditional hand-carved joinery, natural surface wear along the trestle base and seat edges, and patinated timber finishes with rich grain definition.

Positioning a pair of sgabello chairs symmetrically on either side of an entry console or within a hallway creates a strong architectural accent that elevates contemporary decor.

Regular light dusting with a soft, dry cloth is recommended, alongside an annual application of clear beeswax along the wood grain to protect the finish and preserve the timber.
