Archival Detail
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.

A bergere armchair is an eighteenth-century French style of upholstered seat characterised by an enclosed frame, padded armrests, and a deep loose seat cushion.

Traditional construction relies on solid hardwood frames such as beech or walnut, finished with gesso, oil gilding, or milk paint, and stuffed with natural horsehair and coil springs.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-carved joinery, pegged mortise-and-tenon joints, subtle hand-carving irregularities, and natural oxidisation on the underside of the wooden frame.

These chairs function effectively positioned in pairs opposite a minimalist contemporary sofa, flanking a fireplace hearth, or situated within a master bedroom suite.

Position wooden frames away from direct sunlight and central heating radiators to prevent paint flaking, and clean delicate silk or damask upholstery using gentle, low-suction vacuuming.
