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.

Regency seating from the early 19th century features classical proportions, influenced by ancient Greek and Roman designs. Typical features include reeded or turned legs, sabre legs, carved acanthus or roundel details, and the extensive use of dark hardwoods such as mahogany and rosewood.

These pieces were constructed using solid mahogany or oak frames, webbed or coiled spring seats, and natural horsehair stuffing. Upholstery consisted of full-grain hide finished with decorative brass studding and fitted onto hand-turned brass castors.

Authentic period armchairs show signs of traditional joinery, including hand-cut mortise and tenon joints, natural patination on timber, and hand-tacked brass studs. Original brass castors will often display operational wear and period maker stamps or markings.

Position the chair in a reading corner or study alongside a minimalist floor lamp to highlight the leather texture. Pairing rich mahogany and tan hide with neutral walls creates a balanced contrast between traditional craftsmanship and modern design.

Keep leather armchairs away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent drying and cracking. Treat the hide periodically with a specialized leather balm, and clean carved timber frames using a soft cloth and natural beeswax.
