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

Originating in the late Victorian and Edwardian eras, the drop-arm sofa incorporates a brass ratchet mechanism on one or both sides. This feature allows the armrests to drop down flat, transforming a standard two-seater sofa into a daybed or chaise lounge for reclining.

Period seating from the late 19th and early 20th centuries typically features a solid hardwood frame, hand-tied steel coil springs, and natural stuffing such as horsehair, coconut fibre, or wool, finished with full-grain calfskin or cowhide leather.

Authentic pieces display heavy steel or brass side ratchets with distinct drop slots, hand-stitched seams, original horsehair stuffing beneath the lining, and natural age-related surface wear and patination across the leather.

A patinated leather sofa creates visual contrast against modern minimalist walls, polished concrete, or timber flooring. Incorporating contemporary textile cushions or pairing the piece with mid-century lighting balances historical texture with clean modern lines.

Clean the leather surface periodically with a dry microfibre cloth to prevent dust accumulation. Apply a natural beeswax or lanolin-based leather balm once or twice a year to maintain hydration, avoiding placement near direct heat sources or prolonged sunlight.
