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.

Jacobean Revival armchairs typically feature low, deep-seated profiles combined with heavy timber frameworks, prominent relief carving, and ornate claw or scroll feet. These pieces emphasize solid craftsmanship and rich structural embellishment inspired by 17th-century designs.

Traditional armchairs are constructed with hardwood frames, such as oak, mahogany, or beech, using mortise and tenon joinery. The interior support relies on hand-tied coil springs, burlap webbing, and natural fillings, finished with heavy woven fabrics like velvet or brocade.

Examine the underside of the frame for hand-cut timber joinery, hand-tacked webbing, and original steel coil springs rather than modern stapled elastic. Authentic period timber carving shows subtle hand-carved variations and natural surface oxidation along raised details.

Position the pair opposite a streamlined sofa to create balance between intricate historical detailing and clean contemporary lines. Pair the rich upholstery tones with neutral wall colours or unvarnished timber flooring to anchor the space.

Gently vacuum the velvet fabric using a soft brush attachment along the direction of the pile to remove surface dust. Treat exposed carved timber with a thin layer of natural beeswax applied with a soft cloth to protect the wood finish.
