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

Bentwood furniture was pioneered in the 19th century by Michael Thonet, who developed a steam-bending process that allowed beechwood to be curved into lightweight, elegant structural forms.

These pieces are predominantly constructed from steam-bent beechwood timber paired with hand-woven natural cane or rattan webbing for the seating surfaces.

Authentic period examples often feature maker paper labels or heat-imprinted stamps beneath the frame, along with hand-cut joinery and aged natural woven cane.

Small accent rockers work effectively on a raised hearth, placed beside a fireplace, or positioned in a nursery to add texture and historical character.

Cane seating requires periodic hydration with a damp cloth to prevent brittleness, while the timber frame should be dusted regularly and kept away from direct heat sources.
