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

Designed during the 19th century for private reading rooms and studies, Victorian library armchairs typically feature deep seats, padded armrests, sturdy hardwood frames, and dark leather upholstery suited to prolonged seating.

These chairs were constructed using solid hardwood frames, such as mahogany, oak, or walnut, joined with traditional mortise and tenon joints, hand-tied coil springs, horsehair padding, and hand-tacked leather hide.

Authentic pieces display hand-turned wood legs, brass castors, individual brass studding, irregular hand-stitching, and natural surface wear or patination on the leather upholstery rather than uniform synthetic textures.

Pair the chair with a contemporary floor lamp and a minimalist side table to create a dedicated reading corner, or position it alongside modern upholstery to add historical texture and contrast to a living space.

Keep the leather away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight to prevent drying or cracking, dust regularly with a soft cloth, and apply a specialised leather conditioner periodically to maintain flexibility.
