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.

This pair of late eighteenth-century George III period armchairs follows a Sheraton design made from dark brown mahogany with a rich patina and finish, complemented by recent serviceable red damask-style upholstered seats. Each chair has an open armrest configuration, interlaced trellis-style back splats with flower-head carved detail, a top-rail with a figured tablet panel, turned front legs, and reeded detailing along the front legs, arm supports, and arms. The timber shows some wear to the arms and front legs commensurate with age and use, and the seat frame includes some re-railing undertaken in the past fifty years. Measuring 86 cm high, 56 cm wide, and 48 cm deep, these Georgian armchairs suit placement as occasional seating in a living room, study, library, or bedroom within an English country house interior setting.

FAQs

Produced during the reign of King George III from 1760 to 1820, these armchairs feature neoclassical proportions, hand-carved solid mahogany frames, and decorative geometric or lattice backrests.

Craftsmen primarily utilised solid mahogany imported from the West Indies, mortise and tenon joinery, and traditional natural stuffing materials such as horsehair for upholstered seats.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut joinery, hand-sawn timber marks on unexposed framing, pegged joints, period-appropriate patination, and hand-carved reeding or lattice work.

Position them as accent seating in a study or hallway, or place them as carver chairs at the ends of a dining table to create historical contrast alongside contemporary furniture.

Keep timber away from direct heat and sunlight, dust regularly with a dry lint-free cloth, and apply natural beeswax polish sparingly along the wood grain once or twice a year.
