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.

Wingback armchairs originated in seventeenth-century England to protect sitters from cold draughts and retain heat from open fireplaces. The distinctive side wings captured warmth while shielding the user from cool indoor currents in large draughty rooms.

Traditional wingback chairs feature solid hardwood frames, such as beech or oak, joined with mortise and tenon carpentry. The inner construction typically incorporates jute webbing, hand-tied coil springs, and natural stuffing like horsehair beneath velvet, wool, or leather upholstery.

Authentic period pieces display hand-carved wooden legs, corner block structural reinforcement inside the frame, and hand-tied webbing visible beneath the base. Natural timber wear consistent with age and period-specific leg joinery further indicate authenticity.

Place a high-backed wing armchair alongside a modern floor lamp to establish a functional reading corner. Combining rich velvet upholstery with neutral walls or sleek contemporary elements balances traditional craftsmanship with modern design.

Vacuum velvet upholstery regularly using a soft brush attachment following the direction of the pile to remove dust. Clean timber legs with a dry cloth, apply natural beeswax polish periodically, and keep the armchair away from direct sunlight to prevent fabric fading.
