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

A crapaud chair is a low-seated, fully upholstered French armchair featuring an integrated curved back rest, short legs, and traditional buttoned tufting, originating during the 19th century.

Frames were typically constructed from hardwoods such as beech or walnut, fitted with jute webbing, coil springs, natural horsehair or fibre filling, and finished with metal castors.

Authentic period examples feature hand-carved timber frames, hand-tied coil spring construction, original brass or iron castors, and historical joinery methods such as mortise and tenon joints.

Positioning a pair in a bedroom alcove, flanking a fireplace, or placing them in a dressing space adds formal structure while integrating classic proportions into modern interior schemes.

Keep exposed wooden legs clean using a dry microfibre cloth, vacuum fabric gently with a soft upholstery brush, and position the frames away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent timber warping.
