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

Howard and Sons armchairs are characterised by their deep, comfortable proportions, low-slung profiles, and expert upholstery techniques that prioritize ergonomic support.

Authentic pieces typically feature hand-tied coil spring systems, horsehair stuffing, sturdy beech frames, and tapered wooden legs fitted with brass castors.

Verification relies on inspecting stamped brass castor caps, makers marks on the rear legs, numbered ticking under the upholstery, and traditional webbing patterns.

Pairing this traditional silhouette with clean-lined modern furniture, neutral walls, and minimalist lighting creates a balanced, layered aesthetic.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming with a soft brush attachment, professional dry cleaning for spills, and keeping the fabric away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
