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

A carver chair inspired by 17th-century design typically features a high back, robust oak frame, intricate wood carving, and turned elements such as barley twist uprights. These chairs were traditionally positioned at the head of a dining table, featuring open scroll arms to distinguish the head of the household.

Chairs from this era were crafted predominantly from solid oak and often featured hand-woven rattan cane back panels. Upholstered seats were padded and covered in tapestry, damask, or woven wool fabrics, attached with mortise-and-tenon timber joinery.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-cut joinery, subtle surface irregularities from hand-planing, and dark patination in high-touch areas like armrests. Look for historic wooden peg construction rather than modern metal fasteners, along with natural surface wear on lower stretchers.

A carved oak carver chair works effectively as a statement accent piece in an entrance hallway or paired with a modern desk. Contrast the dark, detailed timber against neutral walls and contemporary textiles to highlight the intricate woodwork.

Dust the carved timber regularly with a soft-bristled brush, and apply a natural beeswax polish annually to protect the wood finish. Keep the woven cane panel away from direct heat sources and radiators to prevent the fibers from becoming brittle.
