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 bedroom chairs, often called slipper chairs, were designed with a low seat height and an armless silhouette to assist individuals while dressing. They commonly feature deep-buttoned upholstery, padded backs, and short turned wooden legs.

High-quality Victorian upholstery utilised solid hardwood frames, such as beech, combined with coil springs, webbed support, and natural fillings like horsehair and hair-padding, finished with brass castors.

Authentic pieces by Howard and Sons typically feature stamped rear legs with the makers name or number, stamped brass castors, and original monogrammed fabric lining on the underside of the frame.

Position them as a pair at the foot of a bed, flank a fireplace, or place them in an unused dressing room corner to provide tailored seating without obstructing eye level or architectural details.

Lightly vacuum fabric upholstery using a soft brush attachment, avoid placing timber legs near direct heat sources to prevent cracking, and apply a neutral beeswax paste to polished wood legs periodically.
