Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

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.

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

Established in the 19th century, Howard and Sons became renowned for their superior craftsmanship, patented sprung upholstery systems, and defining role in Victorian and Edwardian interior comfort.

Authentic pieces typically feature robust beech frames, complex coiled spring systems, horsehair stuffing, hessian webbing, and traditional hand-stitching, supported on turned mahogany legs with brass castors.

Verification involves checking for stamped manufacturer marks on the back legs, serial numbers, characteristic label markings, and the distinct heavy-duty frame construction combined with superior spring tension.

Pairing these historical chairs with clean-lined contemporary sofas, neutral walls, and minimalist lighting creates a balanced scheme that highlights the heritage upholstery without overwhelming the space.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming with a soft brush attachment, protection from direct sunlight to prevent textile fading, and professional dry cleaning or restoration for the historic fabric and internal stuffing.
