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 button-back armchairs are characterised by deep tufted upholstery anchored with buttons, padded contoured backs, carved timber frames, and short legs often fitted with brass castors.

These chairs typically feature solid hardwood frames crafted from walnut, mahogany, or oak, stuffed with natural horsehair or coir, supported by coil springs, and upholstered in velvet, damask, or leather.

Authentic pieces display hand-carved timber detailing, traditional jute webbing and tied coil spring construction, original brass castors, and frame wear near joinery without modern staples or composite materials.

Position the armchair in a modern reading nook alongside minimalist side tables or architectural floor lamps, allowing the plush velvet texture and wood craftsmanship to act as a focal point.

Vacuum the velvet gently using a soft brush attachment in the direction of the pile, position the piece away from direct sunlight to prevent fading, and clean the exposed timber elements with natural beeswax polish.
