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 pair of 19th-century rustic side chairs brings a country farmhouse aesthetic to an interior setting. Each chair has a distressed white painted wooden frame, a golden-brown woven rush seat, and vertical spindle backrests with decorative turned details. The design incorporates four slender spindle back rails, horizontal framing stretchers, and a turned front stretcher above simple cylindrical front legs. Visible signs of age include craquelure, paint loss exposing the timber underneath, and variations in the beeswax finish across the painted surfaces. Measuring 87 cm high, 45 cm wide, and 38 cm deep, these functional side seats fit well around a dining table, in a kitchen, or as accent seating in a hallway or bedroom. They integrate easily into traditional, cottage, or eclectic interior schemes where textured natural materials and aged painted finishes complement everyday living spaces.

FAQs

Rustic country chairs from the 19th century typically feature straightforward joinery, turned timber spindles, and hand-woven rush seats designed for everyday functional domestic use.

The structural frames are usually constructed from regional hardwoods such as ash, beech, or oak, while the seats are hand-woven using dried freshwater rushes or cattails.

Authentic period examples display hand-turned components, pegged joints, historical wear to painted surfaces, and uneven, tightly twisted natural rush seat strands.

These chairs add visual texture and historical contrast when placed in entryways, flanking a dining table, or paired alongside contemporary minimalist furnishings.

Dust the frame and seating regularly with a dry soft-bristled brush, and lightly mist or wipe the rush occasionally to retain fibre flexibility without soaking the material.
