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.

This pair of Victorian armchairs from the 19th century exemplifies classic English Country House style, constructed from walnut, fabric, and brass. One chair wears a cream and grey patterned fabric covering while the other presents unbleached white calico over exposed wooden framing, both featuring deep seats, padded arms, turned legs, and brass castors. The timber shows warm mid-brown tones, and the upholstered elements include loose back and seat cushions alongside exposed webbing and tacking on the unrestored frame. Each chair measures Width 70 cm x Depth 75 cm x Height 76 cm, with a seat height of 42 cm and a seat depth of 45 cm. Suitable for a living room, library, or drawing room, these armchairs provide comfortable fireside seating either paired together or positioned separately around a home. Their compact low-slung proportions and traditional design make them versatile additions to traditional or contemporary interiors seeking authentic period seating.

FAQs

The Ingleby is a signature model of armchair produced by the London cabinetmakers Howard and Sons, characterised by a low-slung frame, deep proportions, and relaxed seating posture.

Traditional Victorian armchairs feature beech or walnut timber framing, hand-tied steel coil springs, natural horsehair filling, down feather cushions, and cast brass wheel castors.

Authentic pieces frequently display stamped lettering on the inner rear wooden legs, stamped brass castors, and original printed monogram fabric linings beneath the seat cushions.

Classic armchairs provide structural contrast in contemporary settings when positioned beside minimalist architecture, modern floor lamps, or updated textured fabrics.

Clean upholstery regularly using a low-suction vacuum with a soft brush attachment, apply natural beeswax sparingly to exposed wooden legs, and place away from direct sunlight.
