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.

Originating in 18th-century England, a Gainsborough chair is a wide-seated armchair featuring a high back, open upholstered arms, and carved timber supports, designed specifically for library and study settings.

Authentic Georgian library seating typically incorporates solid mahogany or walnut frames, hand-tacked leather or wool upholstery, and traditional coil springing with natural horsehair filling.

Look for hand-cut mortise and tenon joinery, natural wear on corner stretchers, original brass studding, and dense, dark mahogany featuring rich patina without modern machine marks.

Pair a single leather armchair with a minimal contemporary side table and sleek brass lighting, creating a focused reading nook that balances warm textures against modern architectural lines.

Keep leather furniture away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent drying or cracking. Apply a dedicated leather conditioner annually and dust timber frames regularly with a dry microfibre cloth.
