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.

Regency library armchairs, dating from the early 19th century, combine classical proportions with functional comfort, often featuring reeded legs, scroll arms, and sometimes reclining or sliding frame mechanisms.

These armchairs were predominantly crafted from dense mahogany or rosewood timber, fitted with brass castors, and constructed using traditional joinery alongside natural fibre upholstery padding.

Authentic pieces display hand-carved reeding or fluting, original mortise-and-tenon joinery, historical patina on the timber, and period-correct brass fittings such as castors and hinges.

Place a pair in a study, reading nook, or drawing room paired with a low side table and modern ambient lighting to create a refined contrast between historic and contemporary elements.

Maintain the timber by dusting regularly and applying natural beeswax polish annually, while keeping upholstery out of direct sunlight and gently cleaning brass fittings with a soft cloth.
