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.

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

A Georgian camel back sofa is defined by its arched backline that rises in the centre to form a hump, resembling a camels back. This style typically features serpentine curves, rolled arms, and exposed timber legs connected by H-stretchers or straight stretchers for structural stability.

Frames were typically constructed from solid hardwoods such as mahogany or oak. Internal upholstery traditionally incorporated coil springs, natural burlap webbing, horsehair, and wool padding, covered in fabrics like velvet, damask, or brocade.

Authentic period examples feature hand-cut joinery, hand-carved framework components, and mortise-and-tenon joints secured with wooden pegs. The underside frame will often show tool marks and natural age oxidisation on exposed timber surfaces.

These structured sofas are commonly placed against neutral walls or anchored in drawing rooms with contemporary artwork above the backrest. Balancing the historic silhouette with clean-lined side tables creates an engaging contrast between traditional and modern aesthetics.

Vacuum fabric gently with a soft brush attachment to prevent dust accumulation. Keep upholstered pieces out of direct sunlight to prevent colour fading, and clean exposed wooden legs with specialized beeswax polish applied along the grain.
