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

The Knole design originates from Knole House in Kent, England, dating back to the early 17th century. Originally created as a sofa with drop sides to protect sitters from draughts, the style evolved into individual armchairs retaining the iconic adjustable hinged sides and cord ties.

Traditional Knole armchairs feature solid hardwood frames, hand-tied coil springs, and jute webbing. The outer upholstery is commonly rich velvet or heavy tapestry, complemented by braided trim, heavy fringe, and fabric-wrapped finials.

Authentic Knole seating is defined by its high back and hinged drop-side arms held in position by fabric ropes or cords tied around wooden finials. The presence of corner fringe along the lower frame and substantial contrast piping are also hallmark indicators.

Positioning a pair of Knole armchairs on either side of a fireplace or window creates a balanced, formal seating arrangement. The rich texture of velvet upholstery adds depth when paired alongside contemporary clean-lined coffee tables or minimalist neutral decor.

Regularly vacuum velvet upholstery using a soft brush attachment in the direction of the pile to remove dust. Blot liquid spills immediately with a dry cloth without rubbing, and seek professional dry cleaning for stubborn marks or overall fabric restoration.
