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 ladder back chair, also known as a slat back chair, is a traditional seating design characterised by horizontal wooden bars or slats arranged vertically along the backrest between two uprights, resembling the rungs of a ladder.

These chairs are typically constructed from native hardwoods such as oak, ash, fruitwood, or elm. The seats are woven from natural dried freshwater rush reeds stretched over a four-piece wooden frame.

Authentic period examples display hand-cut mortise and tenon joinery, subtle asymmetry in turned components, hand-planed slat undersides, and natural wear or shrinkage on stretcher rails consistent with age.

Position ladder back chairs around a scrubbed pine or modern oak dining table to add tactile warmth, or place a single chair individually in an entryway or alcove as a functional accent piece.

Clean the wooden framework with a soft cloth and apply beeswax periodically to preserve the patina. Keep the rush seat dust-free using a soft brush or vacuum attachment, avoiding excessive moisture or direct heat sources.
