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

Emerging around the turn of the twentieth century, scroll back armchairs are characterised by a padded backrest that curves backwards at the top rail, combined with deep seating designed for informal relaxation in country estates.

These armchairs typically feature hardwood frames, coil-sprung seats, natural horsehair or fibre padding, and front legs turned from timber such as walnut or mahogany fitted with brass castors.

Authentic examples show hand-tied spring construction, original brass castors often stamped with maker names, traditional mortise and tenon joinery beneath upholstery, and natural wood ageing on unpainted legs.

Positioning a pair opposite a sofa creates symmetry, while re-upholstering in contemporary linen, textured boucle, or bold geometric patterns bridges traditional forms with modern aesthetic schemes.

Protect timber legs with regular beeswax application, avoid direct exposure to sunlight to prevent timber drying and fabric fading, and consult a traditional upholsterer to maintain internal spring integrity.
