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.

Late Victorian armchairs from the late 19th century often featured exposed carved wooden frames, known as open arms, alongside button-backed upholstery. Influenced by Rococo Revival trends, these designs prioritised comfort with rounded backs and ornate timber detailing.

Cabinetmakers typically used dense hardwoods such as solid walnut, mahogany, or rosewood for the exposed frame. Internal construction involved coil springs, horsehair padding, jute webbing, and brass castors fitted to the front legs.

Authentic 19th-century pieces display hand-carved wood accents, original brass castors, and evidence of traditional upholstery techniques like hand-tied springs. Examining the underside reveals hand-sawn timber framing and aged patina on the wood finish.

Positioning a Victorian armchair alongside contemporary minimalist lighting or a neutral rug creates architectural contrast. Neutral upholstery allows the carved timber frame to stand out while complementing modern colour schemes.

Apply natural beeswax polish to the walnut frame periodically along the grain to prevent the wood from drying out. Upholstery requires regular vacuuming with a soft brush attachment and immediate spot cleaning using non-abrasive cleansers.
