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

Victorian armchairs associated with makers like James Shoolbred & Co. feature deep button-back upholstery, low-slung seats, turned wooden legs, and robust internal spring construction designed for deep comfort.

Frames were constructed from dense hardwoods such as beech, mahogany, or oak, padded with horsehair, jute webbing, and steel coil springs, and completed with metal castors.

Authentic period examples feature hand-stitched upholstery lining, stamped metal castors or leg marks from maker foundries, and hand-turned timber legs exhibiting age-appropriate patination.

Position the chair beside a modern side table or within a quiet library corner, allowing its scrolled profile and velvet texture to serve as an architectural focal point against neutral walls.

Vacuum the fabric gently using a soft brush attachment, keep the chair away from direct sunlight to avoid uneven fading, and polish turned timber legs with natural beeswax.
