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

Nineteenth-century daybeds and chaise longues typically feature generous curves, button-tufting, and low backrests designed for reclining in formal parlours or bedrooms.

These pieces were conventionally constructed with a sturdy hardwood frame, such as mahogany or beech, stuffed with traditional materials like horsehair, wool, and cotton wadding.

Authenticity is determined by inspecting the frame construction, hand-tied coil springs, traditional stuffing materials, and the presence of handmade joinery and brass castors.

It can be paired with neutral walls and minimalist lighting to let the historic silhouette stand out, or layered with textured cushions to soften contemporary spaces.

Keep the piece away from direct sunlight to prevent fabric degradation and wood drying, and use professional conservation cleaning methods for the delicate upholstery.
