Archival Detail
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.

Louis XVI style armchairs, or fauteuils, feature geometric lines, fluted tapering legs, and carved neo-classical motifs such as ribbons, rosettes, and acanthus leaves. They frequently incorporate painted or parcel-gilt timber frames paired with upholstered seats, backs, and padded armrests.

The frames are typically constructed from solid hardwoods such as beech or walnut, finished with gesso and paint or gold leaf gilding. Traditional upholstery utilises natural filling materials including horsehair, steel coil springs, jute webbing, and silk damask or brocade fabrics.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-carved joinery details, subtle construction asymmetries, wooden pegs, and natural wear to the painted or gilded surfaces. The underside of the frame often reveals original hand-tacked webbing, historical saw marks, and natural patination on unpainted wood.

A pair of painted fauteuils can serve as focal seating in a living space or sit adjacent to a console table in a hallway. Pairing intricate neo-classical silhouettes with minimalist architectural features or neutral modern textiles creates a structured visual contrast.

Dust painted and parcel-gilt surfaces lightly using a soft microfibre cloth or dry brush, avoiding water, chemical polishes, or solvents that compromise the finish. Vacuum the upholstery using a low-suction soft brush attachment and position the furniture away from direct sunlight.
