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.

These armchairs are characterised by deep seating, low proportions, padded armrests, and turned wooden legs, designed primarily for comfort in private libraries and drawing rooms during the Victorian era.

Victorian armchairs were built using solid hardwood frames, predominantly mahogany or walnut, stuffed with natural horsehair, coil springs, and jute webbing prior to application of calico or decorative upholstery fabrics.

Authentic pieces feature hand-turned timber legs, original brass castors often stamped with maker marks, hand-tied coil spring construction, and natural age-related patination on the timber frame.

A Victorian armchair serves as a grounding focal point when re-covered in textured linen or neutral wool, providing textural contrast alongside minimalist contemporary furniture and clean architectural lines.

Maintain timber legs by applying beeswax sparingly along the wood grain, position the piece away from direct heat sources to prevent warping, and gently vacuum upholstered sections using a soft brush attachment.
