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 France as the chauffeuse, the slipper chair was designed low to the ground to allow women to sit comfortably while dressing, wearing corsets, and putting on footwear near the warmth of a fireplace.

Traditional construction involved solid hardwood frames, such as beech or walnut, combined with hand-tied steel coil springs, jute webbing, natural horsehair stuffing, and detailed turned wood legs.

Authentic period examples feature traditional mortise and tenon joinery hidden within the frame, hand-tied webbing visible beneath the seat, ebonised or turned legs, and characteristic armless low-profile proportions.

Place a slipper chair in a master bedroom corner, dressing room alcove, or alongside a low table to introduce historical silhouette and fabric texture into contemporary residential schemes.

Keep original textile upholstery away from direct sunlight to minimise fading, vacuum gently using a low-suction soft brush attachment, and consult a specialist conservator for textile cleaning or traditional frame re-padding.
