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.

Wingback chairs were originally designed in late 17th-century England to trap heat from open fireplaces and protect sitters from cold room draughts. Over time, the tall back, angled wings, and deep seat became staple elements of classic British upholstered furniture.

Traditional wingback armchairs feature a solid hardwood frame, often beech or oak, alongside hand-tied coil springs or webbing for support. Upholstery fabrics like cotton velvet or wool cover layers of natural padding, with front legs mounted on brass castors.

Authentic period armchairs display solid timber framing connected by mortise and tenon joinery, original brass castors, and hand-tacked upholstery layers. Examining the underside reveals structural webbing, oxidised tacks, and hand-carved or turned leg components.

A patterned wingback armchair works as a focal accent when placed against muted or deep wall shades in a contemporary living space. Pairing the chair with modern brass floor lighting or a simple timber side table creates a balanced contrast between historical and modern elements.

Regular vacuuming using a soft brush attachment prevents dust from setting into the velvet pile and pattern weave. Timber legs should be conditioned with natural beeswax polish annually, while fabric spots require specialised upholstery cleaner tested first on an unseen section.
