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 superior upholstery construction, deeply sprung seats, low profiles, and signature turned wooden legs fitted with brass castors stamped with the makers name.

Traditional construction typically involves a beechwood or pine frame, hand-tied steel coil springs, horsehair stuffing, hessian webbing, and fine cotton velvet or wool upholstery finished with braided piping.

Authenticity is verified by checking for stamped brass castors, serial numbers or makers marks inked onto the webbing or lining underneath, hand-stitched edges, and traditional joinery methods.

Pair the piece with minimalist contemporary furnishings to let the traditional silhouette stand out, or integrate it into a layered, eclectic living space alongside neutral textures and organic materials.

Protect the fabric from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading, gently brush the velvet pile with the grain using a soft bristle brush, and arrange for professional specialist dry cleaning when necessary.
