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

Victorian button-back armchairs feature deep-tufted upholstery where buttons are pulled tightly through padding to create diamond-shaped depressions. Typically framed in solid hardwoods such as mahogany or walnut, these armchairs incorporate turned legs, padded armrests, and brass castors suited for formal domestic spaces.

19th-century seating structures were built using dense hardwoods like mahogany, walnut, or oak, secured with mortise and tenon joinery. Internal upholstery consisted of steel coil springs tied with jute webbing, layered with horsehair or coir padding, and finished with plush textiles such as silk velvet, wool, or damask.

Authentic Victorian pieces exhibit hand-turned wooden legs, solid timber framing, and original brass castors often stamped with maker marks. Inspection beneath the seat frame usually reveals original coil springs, hand-stitched webbing, and authentic construction wear consistent with period manufacturing techniques.

A Victorian velvet armchair serves as a focal accent when placed alongside modern minimalist furniture or structured contemporary sofas. The tactile texture of velvet and dark timber tones provides depth, contrast, and historic grounding within modern residential spaces.

Preserve antique velvet by regular gentle vacuuming using a soft brush attachment in the direction of the pile to remove dust. Direct exposure to intense sunlight should be avoided to prevent fading, and professional dry cleaning techniques specialized for historic textiles should be utilized for stain removal.
