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

Introduced in the mid-19th century, iron back armchairs utilise an internal wrought or cast-iron framework to create flexible, slim, and contoured seatbacks without heavy timber framing.

These chairs typically combine a concealed iron structure, turned mahogany or walnut legs, brass castors, coiled steel springs, natural horsehair padding, and woven upholstery fabric.

Authentic examples feature a distinctively heavy base, a slightly flexible backrest supported by the concealed metal frame, period brass castors, and hand-finished timber joinery.

Position the armchair alongside a simple side table or within a reading alcove, allowing the patterned upholstery and turned legs to serve as an accent feature.

Keep the chair away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent fabric fading and timber cracking, vacuum gently with a soft brush attachment, and polish the wooden legs with natural beeswax.
