French Antiques and Objets d'art

We specialise in French antiques and work with interior designers, trade and retail in the UK and worldwide. Every piece is examined and restored when necessary to a very high standard by a professionally trained restorer with years of experience.

We have an online store and viewing in person is unfortunately not an option. If you wish to return an item please send us written notification within 48 hours of receipt. Returns can be made up to 14 days after delivery. The item must be returned in the same condition as it left and a full refund less any delivery and return delivery costs incurred by us will be issued.

We ship larger pieces, such as tables and washstands, with specialised couriers and smaller pieces, such as sculptures and lights, with FedEx or the post.

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.

Louis XVI style drapery hardware is characterised by Neoclassical design principles, incorporating symmetrical forms, acanthus leaf relief, laurel wreaths, and fluted detailing popularised in late 18th-century France.

Antique French tie-backs were predominantly cast in solid bronze or brass, frequently finished with fire-gilding or dark patination to provide a durable and lustrous metallic appearance.

Authentic period pieces display hand-chased surface details, hand-threaded mounting points, subtle casting variations, and age-appropriate wear or oxidisation on non-exposed rear surfaces.

These architectural accents add structured elegance when paired with floor-length linen, velvet, or silk drapes in both modern classic and traditional interiors.

Gilt bronze should be dusted gently with a soft dry cloth; avoid abrasive metal polishes or harsh chemical solvents, as these can strip delicate gilding and historical patina.
