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.

This 19th-century Victorian wing armchair stands on dark walnut cabriole legs with carved pad feet. The high-backed piece has high winged sides, low rolled arms, and a deep seat cushion upholstered in a pale yellow damask fabric with a patterned weave. There is visible discoloration and wear across the fabric surface, indicating that the chair is in need of recovering. It measures 117 cm high, 79 cm wide, and 79 cm deep. In a home today, this seating piece works well as a reading chair in a living room, study, or traditional bedroom. The neutral yellow tone and classic English country house style complement both period and eclectic interiors, providing a comfortable spot for everyday relaxation once the upholstery is restored.

FAQs

A wingback armchair is an upholstered easy chair characterised by high side wings extending down to the armrests, originally designed to protect the sitter from draughts and retain heat from an open fireplace.

Traditional 19th-century wing chairs were constructed with solid timber frames such as walnut or mahogany, fitted with steel coil springs, natural hair padding, and upholstered in woven fabrics like damask or velvet.

Authentic 19th-century examples feature hand-carved solid wood legs, hand-stitched upholstery under-layers, mortise-and-tenon frame joinery, and natural wear patterns on the wooden feet.

A period wing chair can be styled alongside a modern floor lamp and side table to establish a dedicated reading space, or placed in a living area to contrast clean contemporary furniture.

Damask upholstery should be vacuumed gently using a soft brush attachment, kept out of direct sunlight to prevent colour fading, and blotted with a dry cloth immediately if spills occur.
