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

Victorian nursing chairs are low-seated, armless upholstered chairs originally designed in the mid-nineteenth century to assist women nursing infants or sitting near low hearths.

These chairs were typically constructed from hardwoods such as mahogany, rosewood, or walnut, featuring coil-sprung seats, deep buttoned velvet or damask upholstery, and brass or ceramic castors.

Authentic pieces from this period feature hand-carved detailing on the crest rail and knees, original ceramic or brass castors, hand-tied coil springs, and traditional horsehair stuffing beneath the upholstery.

Position the chair as an accent piece in a bedroom corner, dressing room, or alongside a fireplace to introduce textural contrast and historical character to contemporary schemes.

Vacuum velvet fabric gently using a soft brush attachment, avoid placement in direct sunlight to prevent fading, and apply beeswax to carved wooden frames using a lint-free cloth.
