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

Nineteenth-century upholstered armchairs typically feature deep button tufting, robust frames constructed from hardwoods such as mahogany or beech, and sprung seats designed for comfort.

Traditional construction involved a hidden timber frame, coil springs hand-tied with twine, horsehair or animal fibre stuffing, and hessian webbing beneath the final textile layer.

Authenticity is assessed through hand-turned wooden legs, traditional joinery methods, hand-forged or early machine-made fixings, and natural wear patterns on the frame and internal webbing.

Pairing a period armchair with modern minimalist furniture creates a balanced aesthetic, allowing the historic silhouette and craft to serve as a focal point in the room.

Preservation requires keeping the item away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent textile fading and wood drying, supplemented by gentle surface dusting.
