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

19th-century French armchairs often feature ornate hand-carved oak frames, incorporating detailed scrollwork, foliage, or zoomorphic motifs such as lion heads. They combine substantial craftsmanship with comfortable upholstery, reflecting historical revival influences.

These chairs were constructed using solid European oak frames, joined with traditional mortise and tenon joints. Upholstery typically utilised natural horsehair or fibre padding over steel coil springs, covered in woven tapestry, velvet, or floral fabrics.

Authentic pieces demonstrate hand-carved woodwork with subtle variations, tool marks, and appropriate age-related patination. Examining the underside reveals hand-cut timber, traditional joinery, and historic upholstery tacks rather than modern staples.

Position a pair of carved armchairs opposite a neutral contemporary sofa to create balance and visual contrast. Pairing traditional carved timber with minimalist architectural elements highlights the detailed craftsmanship without cluttering the room.

Keep the timber frames away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent shrinkage or cracking. Clean the wood using a soft cloth and apply beeswax polish annually, while vacuuming the fabric gently using a soft brush attachment.
