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

A bergere is an enclosed upholstered armchair originating in France during the early 18th century, typically featuring wooden framing and an upholstered back and sides.

Authentic pieces traditionally utilise carved solid hardwood frames, joinery methods such as mortise and tenon, hand-tied coil spring foundations, and traditional textile upholstery.

Identification relies on examining timber ageing, hand-carved detailing consistency, traditional upholstery tacks, and the specific proportions characteristic of historical French furniture eras.

They function effectively as accent seating in living spaces or bedrooms, paired with minimalist contemporary furnishings to create a balanced contrast between historical and modern design elements.

Preservation requires positioning pieces away from direct sunlight to prevent textile fading, avoiding extreme humidity fluctuations, and using professional cleaning methods for delicate upholstery fabrics.
