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.

A French walnut canape is a small upholstered settee originating in 18th-century France, featuring an exposed carved timber frame and padded seating intended for formal salons and drawing rooms.

Traditional French settees are predominantly constructed from dense hardwoods such as walnut, beech, or oak, featuring hand-carved mouldings, mortise and tenon joinery, and natural textile upholstery.

Louis XVI style pieces feature geometric symmetry, straight fluted turned legs, oval or medallion backs, and subtle floral or foliate carvings along the top rail and frame.

Place the settee in an entryway, at the foot of a bed, or alongside contemporary minimalist furnishings to introduce historical craftsmanship and texture to a living space.

Dust the carved frame regularly using a soft brush, apply a beeswax polish sparingly once or twice a year, and position the item away from direct heat sources to prevent timber shrinkage.
