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

Howard and Sons armchairs are celebrated for their supremely comfortable, deep-sprung construction, low profiles, and refined proportions, often featuring tapered turned legs on brass castors.

Authentic pieces typically feature a solid beech frame, hand-tied coil springs, horsehair stuffing, and traditional hessian webbing layered beneath high-quality upholstery.

Authenticity is commonly verified by stamped makers marks on the back legs, serial numbers, stamped brass castors, and characteristic structural hallmarks of late nineteenth-century cabinetmaking.

Pair the piece with clean-lined contemporary furniture or position it within a traditional scheme to create a layered, textural contrast that accentuates its heritage craft.

Protect the fabric from direct sunlight to prevent fading, vacuum gently using a low-suction attachment, and periodically inspect the internal webbing and joints for stability.
