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.

An English country house sofa is defined by deep seating, generous proportions, a low-slung profile, and a solid timber frame. Originating in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, these sofas prioritise comfort and classic tailoring.

Sofas from this era were constructed using solid hardwood frames such as beech or oak, hand-tied coil springs, jute webbing, and natural fillings including horsehair and feather stuffing. They frequently feature turned legs fitted with brass castors.

Authentic pieces feature traditional joinery, hand-stitched hessian webbing, and original brass castors often stamped with maker marks. Inspecting the underside reveals natural materials and period construction techniques rather than synthetic foam.

A country house sofa can be integrated into a modern scheme by reupholstering it in plain linen or textured wool to highlight its silhouette. Pair it with contemporary side tables and minimalist lighting for balanced contrast.

Preserve the frame by positioning it away from direct heat sources and radiators to prevent timber movement. Vacuum the upholstery gently with a soft brush attachment and dry clean fabric covers when necessary.
