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.

Regency style chairs are defined by classical Greek and Roman inspirations, featuring swept arms, sabre legs, delicate painted details, and ebonised or gilded finishes popularised during the early 19th century.

Traditional pieces were typically constructed from woods such as beech or fruitwood that were stained or lacquered black to imitate ebony, often adorned with painted gold leaf highlights and needlepoint upholstery.

Authentic period examples feature hand-turned joinery, original pegged construction, subtle hand-painted ornamentation, and evidence of historical hand-stitching or natural wear to the original finish.

These chairs function well as statement carvers at the ends of a modern dining table, or as occasional seating paired alongside contemporary soft furnishings to create visual contrast.

Clean surfaces gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth to avoid stripping painted details, keep the timber away from direct heat sources, and treat delicate upholstery with professional conservation techniques.
