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.

Wingback chairs were originally designed in seventeenth-century England to capture heat from open fireplaces and shield sitters from cold draughts in unheated rooms. The signature high back and side wings provided both comfort and thermal insulation.

Late nineteenth-century examples feature solid hardwood frames, typically oak or beech, constructed using mortise and tenon joinery. The seating relies on hand-tied steel coil springs, jute webbing, and natural fillings such as horsehair or wool.

Look for hand-carved timber legs showing natural patination and age-related wear, traditional joinery techniques beneath the upholstery, and realistic structural proportions rather than uniform machine-moulded modern frames.

Reupholstering a traditional wingback in a neutral, plain-woven fabric like grey linen allows the historical silhouette to integrate smoothly into minimalist or contemporary rooms alongside modern side tables and floor lamps.

Vacuum fabric regularly using a soft brush attachment to prevent dust accumulation within the weave. Exposed timber legs should be treated periodically with beeswax polish, avoiding harsh chemicals or excess moisture.
