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.

A drop arm sofa, originating in the Victorian era, features a side arm mechanism controlled by brass ratchets or ties that allows the armrest to lower, converting the seat into a daybed lounger.

Victorian drop arm sofas were typically constructed with solid hardwood frames, such as oak or mahogany, coil springs, horsehair filling, and heavy woven upholstery fabrics including tapestry, velour, or damask.

Authentic pieces feature original brass ratchet mechanisms on the drop arm, hand-turned timber legs with brass castors, and traditional internal upholstery construction such as hand-tied springs and jute webbing.

A Victorian drop arm sofa serves as a central focal point in a living space or study, paired alongside neutral wall finishes, hardwood flooring, and tailored lighting to balance historical features with contemporary design.

Vacuum fabric regularly using a soft brush attachment to remove dust, spot clean stains with non-abrasive upholstery cleaner, and apply natural beeswax to turned timber legs to preserve the original finish.
