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

A Victorian barrel back armchair features a curved, semi-circular backrest that wraps around the sitter, often combined with high side wings designed to block cold draughts in traditional interiors.

These armchairs were typically constructed using solid hardwood frames, such as mahogany, oak, or walnut, combined with horsehair or feather padding, steel coil springs, and woven upholstery fabric.

Authentic Victorian armchairs often feature hand-carved solid wood legs, such as cabriole or turned styles, heavy internal construction with hand-tied coil springs, and traditional mortise and tenon joinery.

Place the armchair alongside a modern floor lamp and a minimalist side table to create a functional reading corner that contrasts traditional furniture forms with clean modern lines.

Vacuum the fabric upholstery regularly using a soft brush attachment, address spills immediately with a dry cloth, and treat exposed carved wooden legs with natural beeswax polish to prevent drying.
