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

Originating in seventeenth-century France, the fauteuil is an open-armchair characterised by an exposed wooden framework and upholstered backrest and seat. These chairs evolved through the Baroque, Rococo, and Renaissance Revival periods, serving as formal seating in prominent residences.

Framing was predominantly carved from dense hardwoods such as walnut, oak, or beech to support elaborate sculptural details. Upholstery traditionally incorporated natural fibres, including silk damask, wool tapestry, or velvet, fixed with metal brass tacks.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-carved joinery variations, subtle asymmetrical tool marks, and natural age-related oxidisation in the wood finish. Examination of the underside reveals traditional mortise-and-tenon construction and historical wear on structural joints.

Pairing carved wooden armchairs alongside streamlined modern sofas creates visual contrast within a living area. Placing a pair on either side of a fireplace or console table establishes structural symmetry in formal reception rooms.

Apply natural beeswax polish periodically to timber surfaces to prevent drying and maintain the grain. Vacuum textile upholstery gently using a soft brush attachment and position the chairs away from direct sunlight and artificial heat sources.
