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 19th-century French armchair typically features a solid hardwood frame, hand-carved decorative details, scrollwork arms, and deep coil-spring padding. Designs from this era, such as Louis Philippe or Napoleon III styles, often showcase turned timber front legs paired with brass castors.

Cabinetmakers during this period utilized solid hardwoods such as walnut, oak, and beech for structural frames. Upholstery layers relied on natural materials including jute hessian, horsehair padding, webbing, iron coil springs, and brass tacks.

Authentic pieces exhibit evidence of traditional joinery, hand-stitched hessian lining, and iron coil spring construction beneath modern upholstery layers. Turned front legs, original brass castors, and period-correct timber wear also help verify age and regional origin.

An antique armchair can serve as an accent piece alongside contemporary minimalist furniture, introducing historic texture and structure. Retaining stripped hessian upholstery or re-covering the piece in plain linen provides a neutral aesthetic that bridges traditional and modern interior schemes.

Preserve the frame by keeping the chair away from direct heat sources and high humidity to prevent timber warping. Clean delicate hessian or original fabrics using a soft brush vacuum attachment, avoiding liquid cleansers that might cause staining or deterioration of historic fibers.
