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 settees from the 19th century are defined by their deep button-tufted upholstery, curved backlines, and decorative turned or carved timber legs. They were designed as formal seating for drawing rooms, blending comfortable padding with structured period proportions.

Settee frames were constructed from dense hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, or rosewood. Internal padding typically utilised steel coil springs, natural horsehair, and jute webbing, finished with cotton or silk velvet upholstery.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-turned or hand-carved legs, original brass castors attached with wood screws, and hand-tied coil springs within the seat frame. Inspecting the underside reveals hand-tacked webbing and age-related oxidisation on the wooden components.

Positioning a button-backed antique settee against a modern minimal backdrop creates architectural contrast. Neutral fabric hues allow the historical silhouette to integrate into modern living rooms, hallways, or dressing spaces.

Vacuum the upholstery using a soft brush attachment to remove dust without damaging the pile. Position the piece away from direct sunlight to prevent fabric fading, and polish exposed wooden legs with natural beeswax.
