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.

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.

Howard style armchairs originate from the designs of nineteenth-century English cabinetmaker Howard & Sons, characterised by deep seats, low padded arms, and turned wooden legs fitted with brass castors.

These chairs feature solid timber frames, coil spring seating systems, natural fiber padding, hessian webbing, and calico or ticking under-upholstery.

Authentic Victorian pieces generally feature mortise and tenon joinery, stamped brass castors, hand-tied coil spring systems, and turned hardwood front legs.

A deconstructed armchair introduces textural interest when placed alongside contemporary minimalist furniture, contrasting clean lines with raw upholstery fabrics like calico and linen.

Keep seating positioned away from direct heat sources and strong sunlight to prevent timber shrinkage and fabric degradation, and vacuum upholstery gently using a soft brush attachment.
