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 open armchairs are characterised by exposed timber arm supports, deep button-tufted upholstery, and turned wooden legs frequently finished with castors. Originating in the 19th century, these chairs were constructed for comfortable everyday use in drawing rooms and parlours.

Traditional 19th-century seating typically features solid hardwood framing such as walnut, mahogany, or oak, joined with mortise and tenon joints. The cushioning relied on hand-tied steel coil springs, natural horsehair padding, jute webbing, and woven linen or velvet upholstery.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-turned wooden components, deep hand-stitched tufting, and original brass or ceramic castors often stamped with maker marks. Inspecting the underside reveals aged timber, hand-stitched webbing, and natural organic stuffing rather than modern synthetic foam or metal staples.

A Victorian button-back armchair functions as a visual accent when positioned alongside streamlined contemporary furniture or neutral walls. Placing vibrant period seating against minimal backdrops allows the historic silhouette and textile texture to contrast cleanly with modern surroundings.

Position upholstered antique furniture away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading, and vacuum delicate textiles regularly using a low-suction soft brush attachment. Treat exposed timber legs and arm supports with natural beeswax polish annually to preserve the wood.
