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.

This pair of Victorian English library footstools functions as a classic addition to a country house setting. Each piece consists of a rectangular upholstered padded top covered in soft tan leather, finished with a decorative close-studded border of metal tacks running along the edge above a wooden base. The design includes short, tapered square wooden legs that support the structure. Visible details include distinct signs of age and wear to the surfaces, alongside warm brown tones throughout the leather and timber components. One stool measures 41 cm high, 61 cm wide, and 35 cm deep. These versatile footstools work well positioned at the foot of a bed or placed before an armchair in a gentleman's library or a traditional living room space for resting feet or providing casual extra seating.

FAQs

Look for natural surface patina, hand-applied stud trim around the frame edges, and solid hardwood leg construction rather than synthetic modern materials.

Place a pair at the foot of an armchair or coffee table to add warm leather tones and tactile texture to contemporary living spaces.

Treat the leather regularly with specialised leather balsam, keep out of direct sunlight, and dust the wood framing with a soft dry cloth.

Authentic pieces utilise full-grain leather, close-studded brass or metal tacks, dense internal padding, and polished hardwood legs.

Library footstools traditionally feature durable leather upholstery, solid timber legs, and stud detailing designed for heavy study or reading room use.
