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 Empire style emerged during the reign of Napoleon Bonaparte, drawing heavy inspiration from ancient Roman, Greek, and Egyptian classical design. Furniture from this era features symmetrical silhouettes, rich dark woods such as mahogany, column architecture, and elaborate gilt-bronze (ormolu) mounts depicting classical motifs.

A traditional 19th-century gueridon features a solid or veneered timber frame, predominantly flame mahogany or walnut, topped with an inset or fitted marble slab. Architectural ornamentation is provided through mercury-gilded bronze or brass mounts attached to the apron, column capitals, and bases.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit fine-grained flame mahogany veneers over oak or pine carcass frames, hand-chased gilt-bronze mounts with natural patination, and heavy, thick-cut marble tops with hand-finished edges. Construction details like hand-cut dovetails and period-correct iron or brass fixings on the triform base also indicate authenticity.

A gueridon functions effectively as an accent table alongside contemporary seating, as an entryway focal point, or within a reading corner. Its architectural lines and rich timber tones provide contrast when placed against clean neutral backdrops or minimalist contemporary upholstery.

Dust the mahogany frame regularly with a soft microfiber cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish occasionally along the grain. Clean the marble top using a pH-neutral cleaner to prevent etching from acidic liquids, and avoid applying metal polish directly to the original gilt-bronze mounts.
