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 armchairs from this era are characterised by formal, rectilinear frames, complex joinery without nails, and elaborate carved back splats often depicting mythological motifs or figural scenes.

These chairs were historically crafted from dense tropical hardwoods such as zitan, hongmu, or rosewood, frequently incorporating smooth marble inset panels for the seat or splat accents.

Authentic pieces feature traditional mortise-and-tenon joinery without metal fasteners, natural surface wear on contact areas, and hand-carved decorative elements that show subtle variations in depth and execution.

A pair of carved armchairs works effectively as statement seating flanking a console table, framing a focal doorway, or integrated alongside contemporary upholstered furniture to add visual contrast.

Clean the wood with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and apply beeswax sparingly along the grain; wipe marble panels using a damp cloth with mild soap, avoiding acidic cleaning products.
