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

Hepplewhite style side chairs from the late 18th century are characterised by shield, heart, or oval backs, slender tapered legs, and balanced Neoclassical proportions. They frequently feature delicate hand-painted motifs, central drapery, or wheat-sheaf carved splats.

Frames were typically constructed from hardwoods such as beech or mahogany, which were then primed and decorated with soft tempera or oil-based paints. Upholstery utilised natural horsehair padding, linen webbing, and silk or wool covers.

Authentic pieces show natural wear and craquelure to the paint layer, hand-cut joinery such as mortise and tenon joints, and irregular hand-planed timber surfaces on the underside. Original paint often exhibits layered oxidisation rather than modern uniform distress.

Position them as a pair flanking a console table in an entryway or as standalone accent seating in a bedroom or hallway. Pairing muted painted finishes with modern neutral textiles helps balance historic detail with contemporary aesthetics.

Keep painted antiques away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent flaking and discolouration. Dust gently using a soft, dry microfibre cloth, avoiding commercial chemical polishes or water-based cleaning liquids.
