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.

An antique walnut desk armchair typically features a curved backrest, carved timber handrests, and leather upholstery secured with brass studding. These designs gained popularity in 18th and 19th-century study rooms and libraries for their combination of functional support and timber craftsmanship.

These armchairs were predominantly constructed from solid woods such as walnut or mahogany, fitted with natural hide leather upholstery. The leather was traditionally secured to the frame using hand-tacked brass studs or close nailing over horsehair or webbed internal padding.

Authentic pieces display signs of natural wear to the leather, original hand-cut mortise and tenon joinery, and slight irregularities in the spacing of hand-hammered brass tacks. Frame construction often features hand-carved detailing, smooth patination on contact points, and traditional cabriole or turned legs.

Position the armchair alongside a minimalist writing desk or within a contemporary study to create a textural contrast. Pairing dark leather and warm timber tones with neutral walls or sleek metal accents anchors the room while introducing historical interest.

Keep the timber frame and leather hide away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent drying or splitting. Clean the leather with a soft cloth and apply specialist leather balm periodically, while nourishing the walnut frame with natural beeswax polish.
