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.

Regional or country armchairs from this period combine vernacular craftsmanship with formal design influences like Hepplewhite and Chippendale. Features typically include pierced back splats, curved armrests, and solid timber construction using indigenous woods such as elm, oak, and birch.

Craftsmen used locally sourced British hardwoods including elm for contoured seat boards and structural rails, and birch, fruitwood, or ash for legs and back slats. Frames were assembled using traditional mortise-and-tenon joinery secured with wooden pegs.

Authentic pieces display signs of hand-planing, irregular joint alignments, and original peg construction. Look for genuine surface patination, wear along the stretchers where feet rested, and oxidation around aged joints and fixings.

These armchairs can be positioned at the head and foot of a modern dining table to introduce historic character, placed individually alongside a reading desk, or arranged as side seating in an entryway or hallway.

Clean timber surfaces periodically using a soft cloth and apply clear beeswax polish once or twice a year to maintain the moisture content. Avoid placing solid wood seating directly near heat sources or in areas with extreme humidity fluctuations.
