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 settees are characterised by neoclassical proportions, straight lines, and exposed carved wooden frames. Common design features include fluted tapered legs, carved floral rosettes at the die joints, and symmetrical forms inspired by Greco-Roman antiquity.

These pieces typically utilise hardwood frames made from mahogany, walnut, or beech, secured with traditional mortise and tenon joinery. Interior upholstery methods incorporate webbed bases, hand-tied coil springs, and natural padding beneath patterned woven fabrics.

Authentic period seating displays evidence of hand-carving, original joint construction, and natural age oxidisation on unpolished timber sections. Look for structural carvings on the frame aprons, hand-saw marks beneath the seat rail, and historical maker stamps.

A French mahogany settee can be incorporated into a modern space as an accent piece in a hallway, dressing room, or formal living room. Pairing the carved wooden frame with neutral surroundings or contrasting contemporary art creates a balanced, curated aesthetic.

Dust the carved wood frame regularly using a soft, dry cloth and apply a neutral beeswax polish occasionally to preserve the timber finish. Vacuum the fabric upholstery gently with a brush attachment and address spills immediately with a clean, dry absorbent cloth.
