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

Wheelers of Arncroach were prominent Scottish furniture makers operating in Fife during the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries, renowned for hand-carved seating inspired by Chippendale and Arts and Crafts traditions.

These armchairs are constructed from solid hardwoods such as mahogany or oak, featuring mortise-and-tenon joints, hand-carved decorative splats, and drop-in upholstered seat pads.

Authentic pieces exhibit crisp, hand-finished carving along the cresting rail and back splat, sturdy corner blocks under the seat frame, and often maker stamps or regional workshop labels.

A single carver chair serves effectively as a desk chair in a home study or as an occasional accent piece positioned alongside modern neutral furnishings to create visual interest.

Maintain the hardwood finish by polishing periodically with natural beeswax, dusting with a soft microfibre cloth, and keeping the upholstery away from direct heat sources and sunlight.
