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

Howard and Sons chairs are renowned for their exceptional comfort, deep sprung seats, and understated yet refined Victorian framing, often featuring distinctive low-slung profiles and rolled arms.

Authentic pieces typically feature robust beech frames, traditional hand-tied coil springs, horsehair stuffing, and hessian webbing beneath the final top layer of upholstery.

Verification relies on finding stamped maker marks on the back legs, serial numbers stamped into the brass castors, and characteristic signatures on the ticking or webbing.

Pairing the chair with contemporary lighting, neutral textured rugs, or contrasting modern fabrics creates a curated look that balances historical craftsmanship with current design sensibilities.

Protect the fabric and internal stuffing by keeping the chair away from direct sunlight and excessive humidity, whilst periodically checking the wooden frame and castors for stability.
