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.

This early 20th century Edwardian barrel back armchair is upholstered in ochre gold velvet with vertical fluted stitching along the curved backrest. The seat cushion is flanked by rolled arms outlined with dark metal nailhead trim that continues along the shaped apron. The exposed framework includes dark wooden cabriole front legs ending in carved ball and claw feet. Measuring 112 cm high by 89 cm wide and 79 cm deep, the chair is suitable for a couple when paired with a matching seat, or placed individually as a reading chair in a living room, study, or bedroom styled with English country house decor.

FAQs

An Edwardian barrel back armchair is characterized by its curved, semi-circular backrest that wraps around to form integrated armrests, often featuring vertical fluting or channel tufting designed during the early twentieth century.

These pieces were typically constructed with solid hardwood frames, such as beech or mahogany, utilizing hand-tied coil springs, horsehair padding, metal stud trim, and woven velvet or damask upholstery fabric.

Authentic period examples often feature solid timber frames, traditional joinery, carved cabriole or turned front feet, hand-applied nailhead trim, and original coil-spring webbing visible beneath the lower dust cover.

A period velvet armchair serves as a structured focal point in modern interiors when placed in a reading corner, library, or bedroom alongside contemporary floor lamps and minimalist side tables.

Velvet fabric should be vacuumed regularly with a soft brush attachment and kept out of direct sunlight to prevent fading, while exposed timber legs require periodic application of natural beeswax.
