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

Surrealist furniture blends dreamlike, sculptural forms with functional seating, often featuring organic curves, exaggerated proportions, and unexpected silhouettes popularised in the early to mid-twentieth century.

These pieces typically feature carved wooden frames with painted or gilded finishes, paired with luxurious upholstery fabrics such as satin, velvet, or silk.

Look for distinct structural joinery, original painted patination, carved scrollwork, and signature fluid lines characteristic of avant-garde designers of the period.

Position the day bed as a focal sculptural statement against a neutral backdrop, keeping surrounding furniture minimal to highlight its unique silhouette.

Dust painted frames gently with a dry microfibre cloth and clean satin upholstery using professional dry-cleaning methods, keeping the piece away from direct sunlight.
