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.

Preservation requires keeping the item away from direct sunlight and fluctuating humidity to prevent wood cracking and fabric fading, periodically treating the timber with appropriate wax polish, and avoiding harsh chemical cleaners on both the wood and textile components.

An antique seat serves as a functional statement piece in modern spaces by contrasting historical craftsmanship with minimalist surroundings, often placed beneath deep windowsills, along expansive hallways, or at the foot of a bed to add texture and architectural interest.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit period-appropriate joinery techniques, hand-cut screws or square-headed nails, natural ageing of the timber such as patina and oxidation, and construction methods consistent with late 19th-century workshop practices rather than modern machine production.

Master craftsmen typically utilised dense hardwoods such as walnut, mahogany, and oak for the structural frames, often featuring hand-carved details, joined with traditional mortise and tenon construction, and upholstered using horsehair or cotton stuffing beneath silk, velvet, or wool fabrics.

Victorian furniture, spanning the reign of Queen Victoria from 1837 to 1901, encompasses a variety of revival styles drawing inspiration from Gothic, Elizabethan, and Rococo periods, often characterised by rich woods, heavy ornamentation, and exquisite craftsmanship.
