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.

Chippendale style furniture from the 18th century incorporates elements of Gothic, Rococo, and Chinese design. Key features include pierced splat backs, serpentine crest rails, and balanced proportions crafted predominantly from dark hardwoods like mahogany or regional woods like elm.

English cabinetmakers favoured mahogany, walnut, and regional timbers such as elm or oak. Frame joinery relied on hand-cut mortise and tenon joints fastened with wooden pegs, while seats often featured drop-in frames webbed and upholstered by hand.

Authentic George III chairs display evidence of hand-craftsmanship, such as slightly irregular hand-cut dovetails, tool marks on unexposed timber, and natural shrinkage across wood grain over time. Original wear patterns on stretchers and feet also help verify age.

A Chippendale open armchair works effectively as a statement desk chair in a home study or placed individually in a hallway or bedroom corner. Pairing traditional timber seating with modern lighting creates a balanced scheme.

Maintain wood finishes by applying a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year using a soft cloth. Keep seating away from direct heat sources and radiators to prevent timber shrinkage or splitting.
