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.
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.
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.

Named after 18th-century cabinetmaker George Hepplewhite, this design style is recognised for Neoclassical proportions, light wooden frames, and shield, heart, or oval shaped backrests often carved with wheat sheaves or drapery swags.

Dense hardwoods such as mahogany and satinwood were predominantly used for the frames, paired with silk damask, horsehair fabric, or leather upholstery secured over webbed wooden seats.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-carved geometric and botanical detailing, precise mortise and tenon joinery, straight tapered or square legs, and natural signs of timber age and patination.

These classic armchairs can serve as statement accent seating in a hallway, flanking a side table, or placed at the head of a contemporary dining table to create visual contrast.

Maintain the timber by keeping it away from direct heat sources and prolonged sunlight, dusting regularly with a soft cloth, and applying a natural beeswax polish annually.
