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 slipper or nursing chair is a low-seated, armless upholstered chair introduced in the 18th and 19th centuries to assist women while dressing or nursing infants.

Traditional 19th-century nursing chairs feature solid hardwood frames such as walnut, mahogany, or rosewood, traditional coil spring stuffing, fabric upholstery, and turned legs with brass castors.

Authentic Victorian examples typically possess hand-turned wooden legs, brass or ceramic castors, deep button tufting, and a low seat height designed without armrests.

Position the low-profile chair in a bedroom corner, dressing area, or quiet living room alcove alongside a small side table to establish a dedicated seating spot.

Vacuum fabric upholstery gently using a soft brush attachment, keep the frame out of direct sunlight to prevent timber drying and fading, and apply natural beeswax to the walnut legs.
