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

Late Victorian carved walnut seating often features elaborate pediment top-rails, architectural moldings, and deep turnings, paired with durable upholstery such as dark leather for library or study environments.

Frame construction relies on solid walnut, frequently finished with wax or shellac, while seating surfaces utilise natural leather hide, brass upholstery studs, and brass castors for mobility.

Authentic period pieces exhibit crisp hand-carved joinery details, natural age-related patination on both timber and leather, and traditional brass castors fixed with original steel screws.

Positioning a pair of dark timber armchairs opposite a modern sofa creates balanced visual contrast, particularly when paired with clean-lined side tables or light-coloured textiles.

Apply specialized leather balm periodically to maintain suppleness and prevent cracking, while treating the walnut timber frame with clear beeswax to safeguard the original finish.
