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 brettstuhl is a traditional Alpine folk art chair originating from rural Central Europe, constructed with a solid timber slab seat into which the legs and carved backrest are directly fitted.

These chairs are crafted from solid hard or soft woods using traditional joinery, including splayed legs socketed into the underside of the seat and wedge or through-tenon joints without reliance on metal nails.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-carved details, visible through-tenon joins on the seat surface, slight asymmetry from hand production, and natural surface wear or patination near touchpoints.

A single folk chair functions well as a standalone decorative accent in an entryway, alongside a modern writing desk, or paired with contemporary minimalist furniture to create visual contrast.

Position the piece away from direct heat sources and radiators to prevent timber shrinkage, dust regularly with a dry cloth, and apply a high-grade beeswax polish annually to nourish the wood.
