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

Mid-19th-century Victorian armchairs are defined by deep buttoning, low seats, heavily padded armrests, and turned timber legs mounted on brass castors, engineered primarily for informal parlour or library lounging.

Chairs from this period typically featured solid hardwood frames such as beech or oak, stuffed with natural horsehair and fiber, supported by hand-tied steel coil springs and upholstered in leather or wool velvet.

Authentic pieces often feature maker stamps on the inside of the rear legs, stamped brass castors, branded hessian under-lining, and high-tensile coil spring construction methods specific to the firm.

A Victorian leather armchair acts as a tactile focal point when placed alongside clean contemporary architecture, minimalist floor lamps, and neutral architectural backgrounds.

Leather upholstery should be dusted regularly with a soft cloth, treated periodically with a high-quality leather conditioner, and kept away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent drying or cracking.
