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.

A Gainsborough chair is a wide, high-backed upholstered armchair with open curved arms, developed in 18th-century Britain during the Georgian period.

These chairs were typically constructed using dense hardwoods such as mahogany, features hand-carved arm supports and legs, and were upholstered in woven damask, velvet, or leather fixed with brass studs.

Authentic pieces feature mortise and tenon joinery, hand-carved detailing such as cabriole legs with acanthus leaf motifs, and hand-tacked brass upholstery trim.

A Gainsborough chair works well as a statement desk seat in a home office or placed in a living space to contrast with streamlined contemporary sofas.

Exposed wood should be treated regularly with natural beeswax, while fabric upholstery requires gentle vacuuming and protection from direct sunlight to avoid fading.
