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

Traditional Chinese lacquered seating, developed extensively during the Ming and Qing dynasties, is defined by wood joinery without metallic nails, relief-carved back panels, and multi-layered resin lacquer finishes.

Craftsmen utilised native hardwoods like elm, pine, or camphorwood, securing the framework with mortise and tenon joints before applying natural lacquer coats and hand-hammered brass fittings.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-carved relief panels, structural pegging, smooth wear on contact areas such as footrests, and age-related craquelure or patina on lacquered surfaces.

A carved Chinese sofa serves as a grounding focal point in entryways, living spaces, or wide corridors, pairing cleanly against neutral walls and contemporary textiles.

Protect lacquered wood by maintaining stable humidity levels away from direct heat sources and sunlight, dusting regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, and avoiding water contact.
