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

Victorian seating spans from the mid to late 19th century, characterised by eclectic revivals of historic styles, curved profiles, and rich wood frames often paired with elaborate upholstery.

These frames were typically constructed from dense hardwoods like mahogany, walnut, or oak, featuring hand-carved details, traditional joinery, and horsehair or wool stuffing beneath the top layer of fabric.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-appropriate joinery such as hand-cut dovetails or mortise and tenon, natural ageing of the timber, and hardware like cast brass or ceramic castors consistent with 1850s manufacturing.

Pair this historic silhouette with neutral walls and minimalist modern lighting to highlight its curvaceous wooden frame and let the historical form serve as a focal point.

Keep wooden frames conditioned with appropriate beeswax or microcrystalline polish, avoid direct sunlight to protect textiles and timber, and consult a professional conservator for traditional upholstery repairs.
