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 early twentieth-century Britain, an Edwardian country house sofa is characterised by its deep-seated proportion, low armrests, coil-sprung upholstery, and relaxed silhouette designed for casual comfort.

These sofas typically feature solid hardwood frames, such as beech or oak, stuffed with traditional horsehair or wool padding, layered over hand-tied steel coil springs, and finished with cotton calico or linen upholstery.

Authentic pieces usually retain heavy timber framing, hand-stitched webbing, original brass castors under the base skirt, and deep coil spring construction within the seat base and backrest.

In modern living spaces, an Edwardian sofa provides structural softening when paired with clean-lined contemporary lighting, muted wool textiles, and minimalist side tables.

Maintain the piece by vacuuming fabric with a soft brush attachment, spot cleaning gentle natural textiles with specialised solvent-free cleaners, and consulting professional upholsterers to maintain internal spring tension.
