Archival Detail
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.

Nineteenth-century country house armchairs are characterized by their deep, comfortable seating, lower proportions, and robust construction. Designed for casual lounging, they frequently feature deep buttoning, coil-sprung seats, and turned timber legs fitted with brass castors.

The inner frames were typically constructed from solid hardwoods such as beech or oak using mortise and tenon joinery. Cushioning relied on natural fillings including horsehair, coconut fibre, and hessian, supported by hand-tied steel coil springs.

Authentic period armchairs feature hand-carved turned legs, original stamped brass castors, and evidence of traditional upholstery methods like hand-stitching and tack lines. Examining the timber undersides often reveals age-appropriate wear and historical frame construction.

A traditional armchair can be integrated into modern spaces by pairing it with minimalist lighting or contemporary side tables. Re-upholstering the frame in textured linen or bold graphic textiles creates a balanced contrast between historic form and modern aesthetics.

Keep the armchair away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight to prevent timber shrinkage and fabric fading. Vacuum textiles gently using a soft brush attachment and polish turned wooden legs with natural beeswax to preserve the patina.
