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.

Originating in late 17th-century England, the wing armchair was designed to retain heat from open fireplaces and block drafts in cold rooms. The distinctive side panels, or wings, project forward from the backrest to encapsulate warmth around the sitter.

Late Victorian armchairs were typically constructed with solid hardwood frames, such as beech or oak, fitted with hand-tied steel coil springs and natural stuffing like horsehair. Upholstery was executed in vegetable-tanned hides fixed with individual brass close-nail studding.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-carved solid wood leg structures, original webbed underside construction, and natural wear patterns or surface craquelure on full-grain leather. Examining the joinery and brass studding often reveals hand-crafted irregularities consistent with traditional cabinetmaking.

A period leather wing armchair provides depth and tactile texture when paired alongside streamlined minimalist sofa silhouettes or contemporary glass lighting. Placing the piece near modern shelving creates a balanced focal point that bridges traditional and contemporary aesthetics.

To preserve antique leather, position the furniture away from direct sunlight and artificial heat sources to prevent cracking. regular light dusting followed by occasional application of a specialist natural leather balm maintains flexibility and patination without darkening the hide.
