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.

This set of six Edwardian Jacobean Revival dining chairs comprises four side chairs and two carver armchairs in warm brown oak. The pieces display vertical slatted backrests, drop-in seats upholstered in cream fabric, and bold barley twist leg supports united by H-stretchers, alongside curved wooden armrests on the carvers. The timber exhibits natural grain variations and a polished mid-brown finish, while the drop-in cushions show a textured woven pattern in off-white tones. Practical for daily seating, these chairs fit well around a dining table in an English Country House setting or a traditional family dining room. The individual armchairs stand 100 cm high, 46 cm wide, and 43 cm deep, with a seat height of 45 cm.

FAQs

Barley twist chairs feature spirally turned wood legs and supports, a design originally popularized in Europe during the seventeenth century and extensively revived in the Edwardian era.

These chairs were typically constructed using solid European oak with traditional mortise and tenon joinery, paired with drop-in padded seats upholstered in woven fabric or leather.

Authentic period oak chairs display natural patination across the timber, age-appropriate wear on the foot stretchers, original joinery construction, and hand-carved turning details.

Pairing dark or medium oak twist chairs with a clean-lined contemporary dining table creates an appealing juxtaposition between historical craftsmanship and modern minimalism.

Maintain the timber by dusting regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and applying a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year to preserve the surface finish.
