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

A 19th-century Chesterfield sofa typically features low-backed seating with substantial rolled arms of equal or matching height, traditionally constructed over a solid timber frame with coiled spring support.

Sofas from this period were crafted with solid hardwood frames, such as beech or oak, filled with natural horsehair and fiber padding, supported by heavy gauge steel coil springs, and finished with turned timber legs on brass castors.

Authentic period pieces display hand-turned wood feet, original brass wheel castors, hand-stitched upholstery under-layers, and substantial weight due to dense timber framing and horsehair fill.

A 19th-century sofa can be integrated into contemporary spaces by pairing its classical profile with clean-lined modern lighting, architectural side tables, and textured wool or linen textiles.

To preserve antique upholstered seating, position it away from direct sunlight and radiators, vacuum gently with a soft brush attachment, and treat timber feet with clear beeswax paste.
