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.

French Empire style emerged during the reign of Napoleon Bonaparte, characterised by classical Greco-Roman proportions, symmetrical forms, rich dark woods such as mahogany, and imperial motifs including bees, eagles, and laurel wreaths.

Authentic pieces were typically crafted from solid or veneered mahogany, fruitwoods, or walnut, paired with fine silk damask, velvet, or brocade upholstery, often featuring metallic thread embellishments and carved or gilt-bronze accents.

Look for hand-carved joinery, hand-planed secondary woods such as oak or pine on structural interiors, historical upholstery tacks, authentic wood patination, and period-appropriate motif motifs like imperial bees or anthemiums.

A miniature or sample-sized chaise longue functions as a striking decorative object displayed atop a sideboard, console table, or deep window sill, or as luxury seating for small domestic pets.

Vacuum delicate silk upholstery gently using a low-suction soft brush attachment, keep the fabric away from direct sunlight to prevent fading, and nourish the polished wood frame with high-grade natural beeswax.
