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 Louis XVI style caned beds are defined by neoclassical architectural proportions, straight lines, fluted tapered legs, and woven rattan cane panels. They frequently display detailed relief carvings such as floral garlands, ribbon swags, and central medallion crests.

These bedsteads were typically framed in solid hardwoods such as walnut, beech, or oak, often decorated with hand-painted or gesso finishes. The inset headboards and footboards feature woven natural rattan or cane mesh secured within carved timber channels.

Authenticity is indicated by hand-cut joinery, authentic wear on layered paint or gesso, and hand-woven cane panels attached from behind. Original pieces display aged oxidation to the timber, subtle variations in carved details, and period-correct iron or wooden side-rail fixings.

Style the bed frame with crisp white or neutral linen bedding to highlight the warm tones of the rattan and intricate carved woodwork. Pairing the frame with modern minimalist lighting or subtle muted wall shades creates a balanced contrast between historic craftsmanship and contemporary decor.

Cane panels require occasional gentle cleaning with a damp soft cloth to prevent the natural fibres from drying out and snapping. Keep the piece away from direct heat sources or extreme dry air, and clean the carved wood frame with a dry microfibre duster.
