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.

Victorian footstools were popular nineteenth-century domestic furnishings designed to keep feet off cold draughty floors while seated. Often crafted from polished hardwoods like walnut or rosewood, they served as decorative canvas for intricate hand-stitched needlepoint worked by ladies of the household.

These footstools typically feature solid or veneered walnut frames decorated with floral or geometric wooden marquetry, known as Tunbridge ware. The bases are supported by small turned wooden or ceramic feet, topped with wool needlepoint tapestry upholstery.

Authentic pieces show natural hand-stitching imperfections on the underside of the tapestry, alongside genuine age-related patination on the timber. Tunbridge ware features micro-mosaic wood tesserae inlays, while period footstools frequently retain original porcelain or ceramic bun feet.

Position the footstool near an armchair or fireplace to introduce texture, historical character, and colour contrast into a modern living space. Its compact scale allows it to function as a low accent piece alongside modern upholstery.

Dust wood veneers regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply beeswax sparingly to maintain the polish. Keep textile tops away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading, and vacuum gently using a brush attachment.
