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 Victorian ladies chair, dated 1850, is an armchair formed from warm brown walnut with a textile upholstery of blue and white striped ticking fabric, along with porcelain and brass hardware. The oval spoon back features carved scroll supports and carved cresting at the top, while the serpentine seat rests on shaped carved cabriole legs to the front and outswept back legs fitted with original castors. The wood exhibits a polished finish, and the upholstery is newly done. The structure stands 95 cm high, 63 cm wide, and 58 cm deep. Positioned in an English Country House setting, this armchair serves as a functional seating option for a living room, bedroom, or dressing area. The sturdy, structurally sound frame provides comfortable support for daily use, while the decorative carving and traditional castor wheels add period character to domestic interiors.

FAQs

Designed during the mid-to-late nineteenth century, a Victorian ladies chair features a lower seat height and low or open arms to accommodate the wide crinoline skirts and heavy dresses of the period.

Victorian furniture makers primarily used dense hardwoods such as walnut, mahogany, and rosewood, paired with coil springs, jute webbing, horsehair padding, and woven upholstery fabrics.

Authentic pieces display hand-carved cresting details, traditional joinery beneath the upholstery line, period-appropriate brass or porcelain castors, and natural wood grain oxidisation on unpolished under-surfaces.

Positioning a period accent chair in a bedroom corner, hallway alcove, or alongside contemporary minimalist furniture creates a balanced contrast between historic craftsmanship and modern design.

Dust timber surfaces regularly with a soft cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish periodically along the wood grain, keeping the frame away from direct heat sources to prevent wood shrinkage.
