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

French genre interior paintings depict narrative scenes of daily or leisurely life within detailed architectural spaces, often focusing on social interactions, fashion, and period decor.

These works typically utilise oil paints ground from natural pigments applied to woven linen or cotton canvas, housed within carved and gilded timber frames.

Authentic period works display natural age-related craquelure across the paint layer, historical wood construction methods in the stretcher bars, and signs of oxidisation on the canvas backing.

Position the painting as a focal point above a sideboard or mantelpiece, balancing the historical imagery with minimalist or structured modern furnishings.

Keep the artwork away from direct sunlight and humidity fluctuations, dusting the frame and surface gently with a soft, dry brush without applying liquid cleaners.
