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 19th-century library armchair is typically designed with a generous seat, deeply buttoned back upholstery, and padded armrests to support long periods of reading. Frames from this era commonly feature polished mahogany, scroll-carved arm terminals, and turned front legs mounted on brass castors.

Victorian upholstery relied heavily on traditional joinery with solid hardwood frames, hand-tied steel coil springs, and natural fillings such as horsehair and jute scrim. Deep buttoning was applied using heavy thread pulled through the frame to secure tension and shape.

Authentic pieces generally display period-correct joinery, such as mortise and tenon joints, original brass castors with stamped makers marks, and hand-carved details on mahogany elements. Looking beneath the frame often reveals aged timber and original webbing marks.

An antique library chair functions well as a focal accent piece alongside contemporary side tables and modern lighting. Pairing rich mahogany wood tones with neutral wall colours highlights the historical silhouette without cluttering the visual space.

Wood elements should be dusted regularly with a soft cloth and conditioned periodically using natural beeswax polish applied along the grain. Upholstered sections require delicate vacuuming with a brush attachment and shielding from direct sunlight to minimise fabric fading.
