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.

Originating in late seventeenth-century England, the wingback armchair was designed with protruding side panels or wings to shield the sitter from draughts and trap heat from nearby fireplaces.

Traditional wingback armchairs typically feature solid hardwood frames, such as oak or mahogany, combined with webbed seating, hand-carved cabriole legs, and studded fabric upholstery.

Authentic examples often display hand-carved timber cabriole legs ending in claw-and-ball or pad feet, traditional webbed construction, hand-tacked upholstery borders, and proportional high backs with gentle scroll arms.

Position them symmetrically flanking a fireplace, incorporate them into a contemporary living room arrangement alongside modern side tables, or place them in a study to contrast classical form with modern textures.

Vacuum upholstery gently using a soft brush attachment, keep the timber legs polished with natural beeswax, and place the chairs away from direct sunlight to prevent fabric fading and timber drying.
