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

An iron-back armchair incorporates a contoured metal inner frame developed during the mid-19th century, allowing craftsmen to create comfortable, elegant backrests without bulky timber framing.

Traditional Victorian seating features wrought iron or hardwood framing, hand-stitched horsehair or coil spring stuffing, velvet or damask upholstery, and turned timber legs supported by castors.

Authentic pieces typically feature deep button-tufting, curved backs backed by iron framing beneath the upholstery, turned wood front legs with brass or iron castors, and hand-worked joinery.

Place the armchair alongside contemporary side tables or neutral soft furnishings to create a focal point that balances historical character with clean, modern aesthetics.

Vacuum velvet gently using a soft brush attachment along the direction of the pile, brush occasionally with a soft-bristled clothes brush, and keep the piece away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading.
