Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

FAQs

Traditional country house library chairs are deep, upholstered armchairs designed for prolonged seating and reading, featuring durable leather upholstery, internal spring construction, and low wood frames set on metal castors.

These armchairs are constructed with solid beech or hardwood inner frames, horsehair and coconut fibre cushioning, steel coil springs, hand-tacked leather hide, and turned timber legs fitted with brass castors.

Authentic period armchairs display genuine surface wear, individual hand-hammered brass tacks along the borders, hand-turned timber legs, original metal wheel castors, and natural leather grain patination.

Position a pair of leather library chairs alongside a minimalist floor lamp, architectural fireplace, or dark timber bookcase to introduce rich texture, tone, and historical contrast to a contemporary living space.

Maintain antique leather by dusting regularly with a soft cloth, keeping the furniture away from direct heat sources to prevent desiccation, and applying specialist leather balm to maintain supple hide without stripping the aged patina.
