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 a type of French upholstered armchair featuring an enclosed wooden frame and padded armrests, originating in early 18th-century France during the Louis XV period.

Traditional frames are crafted from solid hardwoods such as beech or walnut, carved with decorative detail, finished in gold leaf gilding, and upholstered over webbed foundations with natural fillings.

Authentic period and revival pieces exhibit hand-carved floral or rocaille ornamentation, fluid cabriole legs, traditional joinery, and gilded finishes showing signs of natural age and patination.

These chairs can be integrated alongside contemporary sofas or arranged as a pair in a living area or bedroom suite to create contrast between historic craftsmanship and modern lines.

Gilded surfaces should be dusted gently using a dry feather duster or soft cloth without water or liquid cleaners, while upholstery requires regular light vacuuming with a soft brush attachment.
