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

A Chesterfield sofa is a classic British seating design characterised by deep buttoned leather upholstery, rolled arms of equal height to the back, and studded trim, originating in the eighteenth century.

Victorian leather sofas typically feature solid hardwood frames, hand-tied steel coil springs, natural hair stuffing, and full-grain bovine leather secured with individual brass upholstery tacks.

Authentic Victorian examples feature solid wooden frames with hand-turned legs or brass castors, deep hand-tufted buttoning extending across the back and seat, and original horsehair or fibre filling.

Balance the visual weight and deep tones of the leather sofa with neutral wall colours, contemporary wool throws, minimalistic lighting, and natural wood or brass accents.

Maintain antique leather by dusting regularly with a soft cloth, keeping the hide away from direct heat sources and sunlight, and applying a specialised leather conditioner periodically.
