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

Queen Anne seating produced in the early 18th century is distinguished by an emphasis on graceful line and form rather than heavy surface carving. Key design features include S-curved cabriole legs, rounded pad feet, and rich walnut construction.

Cabinetmakers during this era primarily utilised solid or veneered walnut, beech or oak internal frames, and mortise-and-tenon joinery. Traditional upholstery incorporated natural jute webbing, horsehair padding, and hand-woven silk, damask, or needlework textiles.

Authentic period pieces display evidence of historic hand-craftsmanship, including hand-sawn timber marks, wooden dowel pegs, and uneven patination. The undersides generally exhibit dark, unpolished timber oxidisation and multiple tack lines from historic re-upholstery.

An antique stool operates as a versatile accent that introduces historical texture into modern rooms. Position it near a fireplace hearth, alongside a reading armchair, or beneath a hall console table to function as occasional seating.

Position the piece away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent wood shrinkage and textile fading. Dust the timber regularly, apply a clear beeswax polish once or twice a year, and clean the fabric using a soft brush attachment.
