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.

This pair of Victorian salon armchairs dates from circa 1875. The seating consists of warm brown mahogany frames finished with carved cabriole legs, scroll arms, and padded armrests upholstered in sage green damask fabric. The wood displays carved cresting and the original eight porcelain casters on the feet. Each chair measures 102 cm high, 68 cm wide, and 55 cm deep. These pieces suit a gentleman's library or a formal reception room, providing comfortable seating for reading or relaxation. They sit well as a coordinated pair beside a fireplace, against a panelled wall, or framing a central cabinet in a traditional or period interior.

FAQs

Victorian salon armchairs from the late nineteenth century typically feature low-seated timber frames designed for drawing rooms and reception spaces, frequently incorporating Rococo Revival carved details and shaped cabriole legs.

These pieces were crafted using dense hardwoods such as mahogany, rosewood, or walnut, structured with traditional coil springs, horsehair padding, and covered in woven upholstery fabrics including silk damask or velvet.

Authentic examples display hand-carved timber detailing, traditional joinery such as mortise and tenon joints, original brass castors on the front legs, and evidence of historical hand-tied spring construction.

Positioning a pair of salon armchairs opposite a contemporary sofa creates a balanced conversational arrangement, while the contrast between carved timber frames and clean modern lines provides visual depth.

Timber frames should be dusted regularly with a soft cloth and conditioned with beeswax, while fabric upholstery requires gentle vacuuming and protection from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading and fibre damage.
