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.
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.

Originating in the late nineteenth century, Aesthetic Movement furniture emphasizes art for arts sake, characterised by ebonised wood finishes, delicate gilt detailing, and simplified geometric forms inspired by Anglo-Japanese design principles.

These pieces were typically constructed from solid hardwoods such as walnut or beech, stained black to resemble ebony, and accented with hand-painted gold leaf decoration, brass castors, and plush velvet fabrics.

Authentic examples display hand-applied incised gilt lines, original ceramic or brass castors, traditional mortise-and-tenon joinery, and a characteristic low seat height designed for vanity use.

This type of seating functions well alongside a modern vanity table, in a dedicated dressing area, or positioned as an accent piece in a bedroom corner to add textural and historical contrast.

Dust ebonised frames using a dry microfibre cloth, avoid water or chemical cleaners that might lift gilding, and use a vacuum with a soft brush attachment to clean the velvet fabric without crushing the pile.
