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.

A pair of Queen Anne Revival library armchairs dates from around 1920. The walnut frames display a warm brown finish with deep patination, complemented by patterned tapestry upholstery in shades of red, yellow, and dark blue, secured with brass studding along the edges. Each chair has a shaped, padded backrest, curved Shepard's crook armrests, stuffed oval seats, and cabriole front legs carved at the shoulders with pad feet. The pieces measure 94 cm high, 61 cm wide, and 57 cm deep. These armchairs suit a traditional gentleman's library, study, or living room. They offer comfortable seating by a desk, alongside a fireplace, or as accent seating in a reception room. Traditional construction methods support regular daily use in contemporary homes.

FAQs

Early 20th-century Queen Anne revival library chairs typically feature carved cabriole front legs, swept rear legs, shaped padded backrests, and curved open armrests designed to provide comfort during extended periods of sitting.

These chairs commonly feature solid walnut or mahogany frames, woven wool or cotton tapestry upholstery, coil-sprung seats, and hand-applied brass stud trimming along the lower frame.

Authentic period examples exhibit natural patina on the walnut wood, hand-carved details on the knee of the cabriole legs, traditional webbed or sprung seat construction, and frame joinery consistent with early 20th-century craftsmanship.

Positioning a pair of upholstered walnut armchairs on either side of a low side table or fireplace creates a structured seating area that adds historic texture and tone to contemporary spaces.

Maintain walnut frames by dusting regularly with a soft cloth and applying natural beeswax polish periodically, while fabric upholstery should be gently vacuumed using a soft brush attachment to prevent dirt accumulation.
