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

Furniture from this period often incorporates thin brass wire, geometric stringing, or floral brass cut-outs set flush into hardwoods like mahogany or rosewood. This technique was popularised during the Regency and Victorian eras to add subtle metallic detail to formal seating and tables.

These armchairs were constructed using solid hardwoods such as mahogany, oak, or walnut, paired with natural vegetable-tanned leather upholstery. Decorative elements included brass inlay, turned wood legs, and steel or brass structural fastenings.

Authentic pieces display hand-cut brass brasswork flush with the wood surface, natural age-related patination on both wood and leather, and traditional joinery techniques like hand-cut mortise and tenon joints beneath the frame.

Position the armchair alongside a minimalist writing desk or within a contemporary reading corner to create a refined focal point. Pairing dark timber and leather with clean architectural lines balances historical texture with modern simplicity.

Dust the timber with a soft microfibre cloth and apply a neutral beeswax paste annually, taking care around brass borders. Condition the leather upholstery periodically with a dedicated leather balm, keeping the piece away from direct heat sources.
