Soft rubbing on the timber stretchers: natural handling over decades.

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 Edwardian two-seater sofa follows a Jacobean style and was originally retailed by Liberty. The piece stands on an ornate carved wood frame with turned legs and decorative stretchers. It features a high double-hump backrest, high wingback sides, rolled arms, and two loose scatter cushions. The woven tapestry upholstery displays a geometric pattern in red, black, and cream tones. Traditional methods and modern fireproof fillings were used during its recent recovery in fabric styled after seventeenth-century textiles. Measuring 148 cm wide by 80 cm deep and 142 cm high, the sofa provides deep seating space with a seat height of 52 cm. It suits a spacious living room or study in an English country house interior, functioning as a statement seating piece against a plain wall or in front of a fireplace.

FAQs

A double wingback settee features two distinct rounded or arched backrest sections flanked by protective side wings. This style developed from traditional fireside seating designed to protect occupants from drafts while retaining heat.

Traditional construction relies on solid hardwood internal frames, typically oak or beech, paired with hand-carved decorative lower stretchers. Coiled steel springs, natural padding, and heavy woven textiles such as wool tapestry or kilim complete the upholstery.

Authentic examples feature hand-carved joinery on visible wooden stretchers, heavy frame construction, and period-appropriate upholstery techniques. Examining the underside reveals traditional webbing, hand-tied springs, and hand-driven tacks.

A statement patterned settee functions as a central focal point when placed against neutral painted walls or exposed timber panelling. Complement the bold upholstery with plain accent cushions and understated lighting.

Vacuum fabric regularly using a low-suction upholstery attachment to remove dust without disturbing woven fibres. Clean polished wood bases with a dry soft cloth and apply clear beeswax annually to protect carved details.
