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.

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

A 19th-century French banquette is a padded bench, often incorporating an upholstered backrest and detailed gilded wood construction inspired by 18th-century seating design.

These pieces were crafted using hardwood frames carved with relief decoration, finished with gesso and gold leaf, and upholstered with natural materials such as hessian and horsehair.

Authentic examples display hand-cut joinery, natural oxidisation or wear across the gilding, and red or white gesso layers visible beneath rubbed surfaces.

Interior designers position these benches in entrance foyers, wide hallways, or along reception room borders to serve as architectural accent seating.

Gilding should be dusted using a soft dry brush, avoiding water or chemical cleaning products that dissolve water-soluble gesso foundations.
