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

Armchairs from this era feature neoclassical design elements including straight geometric frames, fluted turned legs, rosette corner blocks, and carved floral or foliage motifs on the crest rails.

The structural frames were typically carved from dense hardwoods such as walnut or beech, while the upholstery featured hand-woven wool or silk tapestry, often secured with brass upholstery tacks.

Authentic pieces display hand-carved frame joinery, natural timber patination on the underside, period-appropriate hand-woven tapestry fabric, and traditional horsehair or fibre seat stuffing.

These armchairs serve as focal accent seating in contemporary living rooms, paired alongside clean-lined neutral sofas or positioned in reading nooks to provide historical contrast.

Timber frames should be dusted with a soft cloth and conditioned with beeswax, while historic tapestry fabric requires gentle vacuuming with a brush attachment and protection from direct sunlight.
