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.

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

The Howard style armchair, popularised in the late 19th century by makers such as Howard & Sons and retailed by firms like Maple & Co, is characterised by low-slung profiles, scrolled arms, and deep cushioning designed for ergonomic comfort.

Authentic period pieces typically feature traditional webbed frames made from seasoned beech or oak, hand-tied coil springs, horsehair stuffing, and heavy brass castors mounted on turned timber legs.

Authentication involves examining the undercarriage webbing, stamps on the castors or legs, hand-stitched piping, and the density of the traditional stuffing materials rather than modern foam.

These chairs work well as anchor pieces in contemporary spaces when paired with minimalist coffee tables or neutral textiles, bridging traditional craftsmanship with modern comfort.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming with a soft brush attachment, keeping the fabric away from direct sunlight to prevent fading, and treating exposed wooden elements with appropriate beeswax.
