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 window seat is a low, elongated bench with raised ends designed to sit beneath a window sill, popularised during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries in Georgian and Regency interiors.

Antique window seats were typically constructed from hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, or satinwood, featuring decorative marquetry, turned or curved legs, and woven fabric upholstery.

Authentic pieces feature hand-cut joinery, carved structural elements such as lyre or spindle splats, natural timber patination, and evidence of hand-stitched webbing or horsehair stuffing under the upholstery.

An antique window seat functions effectively at the foot of a bed, positioned inside a bay window, or placed along a narrow hallway to provide low-profile seating without obstructing sightlines.

Dust the timber frame regularly with a soft cloth, apply beeswax polish sparingly along the grain, and position the piece away from direct sunlight and heat sources to preserve the finish and fabric.
