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.

Originating in 1830s to 1840s France, Louis Philippe salon furniture combines classical proportions with restrained ornamentation, often featuring gilded carved wood frames and woven upholstery designed for formal reception rooms.

These suites typically feature hand-carved hardwood frames treated with gesso and gold leaf gilding, upholstered with woven tapestry panels or silk brocade secured by brass studs.

Authentic pieces show signs of genuine leaf gilding with subtle red or grey bole clay undercoats visible through gentle wear, along with hand-carved wood jointing and traditional webbing underneath.

Position the suite in a spacious drawing room or reception hall against neutral walls to let the tapestry details serve as a focal point, pairing them with minimal contemporary lighting.

Keep the suite away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent textile fading and wood cracking, gently dust the woodwork with a soft brush, and vacuum upholstery using a low-suction mesh-protected nozzle.
