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 elbow chairs, crafted during the mid-to-late nineteenth century, typically feature rich hardwoods such as rosewood or mahogany, curved open armrests, and plush upholstery designed for comfort and parlour formality.

These pieces were built using dense hardwoods like solid rosewood, walnut, or mahogany, held together with mortise-and-tenon joinery, paired with natural stuffings, woven webbing, brass castors, and velvet or damask fabrics.

Authentic period chairs display distinct wood grain patterns characteristic of rosewood, original brass castors, traditional joinery, and crisp hand-carved decorative motifs along the frame.

A period armchair serves as an exceptional accent piece when paired alongside streamlined modern sofas, positioned beside a fireplace, or placed in a study to create contrast between historic craftsmanship and contemporary lines.

To preserve the wood, apply high-grade beeswax periodically and position the timber away from direct heat sources. Vacuum velvet fabric gently with a soft brush attachment and address spots using specialist upholstery cleaning techniques.
