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.

Napoleon III furniture originated during the Second French Empire (18521870), characterised by eclecticism, comfortable upholstered seating, turned dark wood legs, and ornamental textile detailing.

These chairs typically feature sturdy hardwood frames, ebonised or dark-painted turned legs, traditional horsehair padding, metal coil springs, and woven fabric upholstery.

Authentic period pieces often feature short turned front legs, low-slung proportions, padded scroll arms, and deep coil-sprung seats constructed using traditional hand-tying methods.

Position the chair in a bedroom corner, reading nook, or alongside minimalist contemporary seating to introduce historical texture, contrast, and structured form.

Gently vacuum the fabric using a soft brush attachment, place the item away from direct sunlight to reduce fabric fading, and wax the turned wooden legs periodically.
