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.

A slipper chair is an upholstered, armless chair characterised by a low seat height, originally designed in the 19th century to assist individuals when dressing and putting on footwear.

Victorian seating was crafted using solid hardwood timber frames, steel coil spring bases, natural stuffing such as horsehair, decorative textile upholsteries like velvet or damask, and fitted brass castors.

Pieces produced by Gillows of Lancaster and London frequently feature a stamped name mark on the timber drawer edges, leg tops, or frame, alongside high-grade cabinetwork and stamped brass castors.

Low-profile antique chairs function as statement accent pieces when positioned beside a dressing table, within a reading alcove, or in the corner of a contemporary master suite to provide textural contrast.

Velvet should be brushed regularly with a soft-bristled clothes brush in the direction of the pile, vacuumed using a low-suction attachment, and kept away from direct sunlight to prevent fabric fading.
