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

FAQs

Protect the fabric from direct sunlight to prevent fading, vacuum gently using a soft brush attachment, and professionally clean the upholstery when necessary.

It serves as a classic reading chair or fireside seat, pairing well with contemporary minimalist sofas to create a layered, eclectic aesthetic.

Authenticity is identified by stamped brass castor collars, hand-stitched internal webbing, traditional stuffing materials, and makers marks or paper labels where preserved.

Authentic pieces typically feature a solid beech or hardwood frame, hand-tied coil spring suspension, horsehair stuffing, and turned walnut legs fitted with brass castors.

The Howard style is characterised by low, gently scrolling arms, deep seats, and exceptional comfort, originating from the famed 19th-century cabinet makers and upholsterers Howard & Sons.
