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

A slipper chair is an armless, low-seated upholstered chair that originated in the 19th century, designed primarily for ladies dressing rooms to assist with putting on shoes and hosiery.

These chairs typically feature solid hardwood frames, sprung seats with horsehair or down padding, turned wood front legs, and cast-brass castors.

Authentic pieces often feature stamped markings on the rear legs showing the maker name and location, stamped castors, or original printed ticking under the upholstery layer.

Slipper chairs provide low-profile accent seating suitable for bedrooms, dressing areas, or flanking a hearth in a traditional living room setup.

Upholstery should be vacuumed regularly using a soft brush attachment, while the turned wooden legs can be treated with natural beeswax and the brass castors kept clear of debris.
