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.

Traditional leather footstools originated as low support seats and footrests, evolving during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries into key decorative elements in European interiors. They typically feature hardwood frames, deep button tufting, and decorative brass studding.

These pieces are usually constructed with solid hardwood frames, such as oak, mahogany, or walnut, and upholstered in full-grain animal hide. The cushioning traditionally incorporates horsehair or wool padding, secured with deep buttoning and brass tacking around the frame.

Authentic period footstools feature hand-turned or carved wood legs showing natural wear on the base, genuine patina on the leather upholstery, and hand-driven brass studs with slight variations in alignment. Hand-stitched seams and traditional webbed construction under the seat also indicate age.

A leather footstool functions well as a centrepiece coffee table when topped with a wooden tray, or as low seating beside a fireplace. Mixing rich leather textures with contemporary fabrics adds warmth and visual interest to modern living spaces.

Keep leather footstools away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent drying and cracking. Apply a specialist leather balm periodically to maintain flexibility, and clean timber legs using a soft cloth and natural beeswax.
