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 style armchair originated in nineteenth-century London, renowned for its ergonomic design, deep seating profile, low back, and padded scroll arms. These armchairs became synonymous with luxury seating in English country houses and private gentlemans clubs throughout the late Victorian and Edwardian eras.

Traditional construction relies on solid hardwood frames, typically oak or beech, combined with hand-tied steel coil springs and organic fillings such as horsehair and feathers. Seat cushions are frequently stuffed with down feathers and upholstered in sturdy cotton calico lining before final fabric application.

Authentic period examples often feature maker stamps on the inside of the rear legs or on the brass castors themselves. Additionally, examining the frame for hand-cut joinery, heavy steel spring webbing, and original ticking or calico lining can confirm age and origin.

A traditional club chair works as a focal accent piece when placed beside a modern fireplace, near a bookcase, or within a minimalist living room. Upholstering the frame in neutral linens or bold contemporary velours bridges historical craft with contemporary design aesthetics.

Feather-filled seat cushions require regular plumping to maintain structural shape and prevent down compaction. Timber legs should be treated with natural beeswax, while original brass castors require periodic cleaning with a soft cloth to avoid tarnish build-up without stripping historic patina.
