Archival Detail
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.

Georgian Revival mahogany dining chairs emulate 18th-century English designs, featuring refined craftsmanship, detailed back splats, and durable hardwood construction popularised in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

These chairs are constructed from solid mahogany timber, featuring mortise-and-tenon joinery, intricately carved back splats, and seats upholstered in leather or wool fabric over horsehair or spring padding.

Authentic period pieces display genuine signs of age-related wear on footrests and seat rails, hand-carved details with subtle irregularities, original patination, and traditional joinery rather than modern screws.

Pair a classic set of mahogany chairs with a contemporary oak or minimalist dining table to create a balanced, eclectic aesthetic that highlights contrast between historic detail and modern forms.

Keep chairs away from direct sunlight and artificial heat sources to prevent timber shrinkage, dust regularly with a soft cloth, and apply high-quality beeswax polish annually to protect the original finish.
