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 dressing tables, historically known as coiffeuses, developed during the early nineteenth century and feature classical architectural shapes, rich flame mahogany veneers, marble surfaces, and gilded bronze mounts.

These tables traditionally incorporate heavy timber frameworks clad in flame mahogany veneers, topped with white or dark grey marble, embellished with fire-gilded bronze ormolu fittings, and completed with silvered or mirrored glass.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, oak or pine secondary carcass woods, heavy hand-cast ormolu hardware secured with period-appropriate thread patterns, and natural hand-polished finishes.

Position the piece against a muted backdrop alongside tailored linen drapery, subtle architectural mouldings, and understated contemporary lighting to highlight the classical silhouette and timber grain.

Dust wood surfaces regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply natural beeswax twice yearly, while marble tops should be cleaned using pH-neutral soap and water to prevent acid etching.
