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

The Howard style is characterised by low-slung, comfortable proportions, gently swept arms, and deep coil springing, often set on turned wooden legs with brass castors.

Authentic pieces typically feature a solid beech frame, hand-tied steel coil springs, and traditional stuffing materials such as horsehair, wool, and cotton wadding.

Authenticity is often confirmed by stamped numbers on the castors, manufacturer stamps on the back legs, traditional webbed upholstery techniques, and specific paper labels when intact.

Pair the traditional silhouette with minimalist contemporary lighting and neutral walls, or re-upholster it in a bold modern textile to create a striking focal point.

Protect the fabric from direct sunlight to prevent fading, vacuum gently using a soft brush attachment, and periodically check the wooden frame and castors for structural stability.
