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.

A Howard style easy armchair is modelled after the iconic designs of Howard & Sons, a prominent nineteenth-century British cabinetmaker known for deep seats, soft feather-down cushions, low backs, and scrolled arms. These chairs gained prominence during the Victorian and Edwardian eras as comfortable seating for private residences and gentlemans clubs.

Traditional Victorian and Edwardian easy chairs feature solid hardwood frames, often crafted from beech, walnut, or mahogany. The internal upholstery typically relies on steel coil springs, hand-laced twine, hessian webbing, and natural fillings such as curled horsehair and coconut fibre, supported by turned wooden legs fitted with brass castors.

Authentic Howard & Sons chairs often feature stamped rear legs with the makers name and address, along with stamped brass castors. The original ticking fabric frequently bears a repeating monogram pattern, while the frame geometry typically exhibits distinctive wide proportions and a deep seat depth.

A Howard style armchair can be upholstered in modern linen, velvet, or wool to complement contemporary living rooms, bedrooms, or libraries. Placing the chair alongside a side table and floor lamp creates a functional reading corner that balances historical character with modern comfort.

To preserve antique upholstered armchairs, keep them away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent timber warping and fabric fading. Regular gentle vacuuming using a soft brush attachment prevents dust accumulation, while original castors should be kept clean and lightly lubricated.
