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.
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.
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.

A P arm armchair features armrests that curve downward and inward to form a distinct P shape when viewed in profile, a design popularised during the 19th century in British upholstered seating.

Traditional 19th-century armchairs were constructed with solid hardwood frames, such as mahogany or beech, filled with natural horsehair and coil springs, and finished with turned wooden legs and brass castors.

Authentic pieces usually feature hand-carved turned legs, brass castors often stamped with a makers mark, and evidence of traditional webbed frame construction on the underside.

Position the armchair alongside a modern side table or within a quiet reading corner to create a refined contrast between classic upholstered forms and clean contemporary lines.

Vacuum the fabric gently using a soft brush attachment, position the seat away from direct sunlight to avoid fabric fading, and polish the timber legs periodically with natural beeswax.
