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 captain chair, also known as a smoker chair, is characterised by a low, curved horseshoe backrail, vertical splats or spindles, a shaped solid wood seat, and sturdy turned legs connected by stretchers.

These chairs were historically crafted using dense hardwoods such as oak, elm, beech, or mahogany, selected for durability in heavy commercial or domestic use.

Authentic period examples feature hand-turned spindles, wedged mortise and tenon joinery beneath the seat, natural surface patination around high-wear areas like armrests, and thick solid timber seats.

A matching set can be placed around a rustic dining table or used individually as desk seating in libraries, home offices, and study spaces to introduce historic character.

Maintain the finish by dusting with a lint-free cloth and applying beeswax every few months, buffing along the wood grain while avoiding abrasive chemical cleaners.
