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.

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.

A Louis XV style canape is a French upholstered settee characterized by Rococo design elements, including serpentine curves, cabriole legs, carved floral or foliate motifs, and padded seats with integrated armrests.

Traditional frames were carved from hardwoods such as beech, walnut, or oak, often finished with paint, gilding, or polished wood tones. Upholstery frequently incorporated wool or silk woven tapestries, damasks, or brocades secured with brass upholstery tacks.

Authentic 18th-century pieces typically exhibit hand-carved joinery, peg construction, asymmetrical Rococo scrollwork, and natural wear to original paint finishes or gilding on high-contact areas.

A tapestry-upholstered settee serves as a focal statement piece in an entryway, living room, or bedroom, pairing effectively alongside clean-lined contemporary furniture to create visual contrast.

Tapestry fabric should be lightly dusted with a soft brush or low-suction vacuum using a protective screen. Wooden frames require gentle cleaning with a dry microfibre cloth, keeping the item away from direct sunlight and strong heat sources.
