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

The Howard club armchair is characterised by low, rolled arms, deep seating, and exceptional comfort, originating from the prominent late-Victorian and Edwardian upholstery workshops.

Authentic pieces feature beechwood frames, hand-tied coil springs, horsehair stuffing, and traditional webbed foundations covered in high-quality textile upholstery.

Authenticity is determined by inspecting the internal webbing, traditional hand-stitching, stamp marks on the castors or frame, and the density of the traditional horsehair stuffing.

This piece works well as a statement lounge chair paired with minimalist contemporary furniture to create a balanced contrast between traditional craftsmanship and modern design.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming with a soft brush attachment, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent fabric fading, and professional dry cleaning for the textile covers.
