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.

Victorian wing back armchairs feature high, fully upholstered backs with side wings originally designed to protect the sitter from draughts and trap heat from open hearths. They typically combine carved timber frames with heavy decorative upholstery.

Frame construction from this era predominantly utilised solid hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, or oak. The upholstery traditionally comprised horsehair or wool padding supported by hand-tied steel coil springs and webbing.

Authentic period examples feature hand-carved wooden elements, traditional joinery such as mortise and tenon joints, hand-tacked upholstery foundations, and structural wear consistent with age along lower stretchers and arm terminals.

These accent chairs function effectively placed as a symmetrical pair flanking a fireplace, positioned in a reading corner, or set against contemporary neutral walls to provide structural contrast within traditional or eclectic design schemes.

Textiles should be cleaned gently using a vacuum with a soft brush attachment, avoiding harsh chemical solvents. Exposed timber frames require periodic application of natural beeswax polish to maintain wood hydration and finish.
