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.

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

English country house armchairs from the 19th century are characterised by deep seating, generous padding, and low-slung proportions designed for informal lounging. They frequently feature scrolled backs, rolled arms, and turned wooden legs fitted with brass castors.

Traditional construction utilised solid hardwood frames, usually beech or oak, tied with steel coil springs and padded using natural fibres such as horsehair, coconut coir, and cotton felt. Coverings varied from wool damask and leather to rich cotton velvets.

Authentic period pieces typically exhibit hand-stitched upholstery under-layers, heavy hardwood frames, and original stamped brass castors. Inspecting the underside reveals hand-tied webbing and aged timber rather than modern stapled synthetic materials.

Position the chair in a living room corner or bedroom nook as a focal accent piece, contrasting its traditional curves against clean contemporary architecture. Pair it with a minimalist floor lamp or a dark wood side table to ground the soft blush tones.

Gently vacuum velvet upholstery regularly using a soft brush attachment to prevent dust settling into the pile. Address spills immediately by blotting with a clean, dry cloth, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners, and keep the piece away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
