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.

This pair of late Victorian open armchairs dates from the late 19th century and is made of solid walnut with a waxed finish. The chairs feature oval balloon backs and sprung seats upholstered in crimson red velvet, finished with brass studding along the trim. The shapely moulded wooden frames include carved walnut details at the arm terminals and along the apron beneath the seat, resting on cabriole legs with original turned wooden castors. Each chair measures 99 cm high, 66 cm wide, and 63.5 cm deep. They are suitable for use as occasional seating in a living room, study, or bedroom.

FAQs

Victorian Louis XV revival armchairs typically feature carved walnut frames, curved cabriole legs, oval or balloon backrests, and plush upholstery popular in late 19th-century interiors.

These armchairs were constructed using solid walnut timber frames, traditional brass studding or gimp trim, coil springs, natural hair padding, and rich fabrics such as velvet or damask.

Look for hand-carved timber frame details, ceramic or brass casters, traditional upholstery construction including hand-tied springs, and authentic patina along joint lines.

Pair these statement seats with minimalist neutral backdrops, contemporary side tables, or curated gallery walls to balance historical craftsmanship with modern aesthetics.

Vacuum upholstery gently with a soft brush attachment, keep timber away from direct heat sources to prevent drying, and apply a high-quality beeswax to walnut frames periodically.
