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 dessus-de-porte is a decorative architectural panel mounted above an interior doorway, widely utilized in French classical interiors from the 17th through 19th centuries to enhance architectural proportions.

These panels were typically hand-carved from solid hardwoods such as oak or lime wood, coated with gesso, and finished using gold leaf gilding alongside hand-painted polychrome tempera or oil pigments.

Authentic period panels exhibit hand-chiseled wood gouge marks, natural age cracking or shrinkage along the grain lines, and subtle wear to the gold leaf revealing the underlying gesso or red bole layer.

Position the panel directly above an internal doorframe, mount it above a fireplace mantelpiece, or hang it as a central artwork feature over a hallway console table.

Remove surface dust using a dry, soft camel-hair brush, avoiding wet cloths, water, or commercial polished cleansers that can dissolve water gilding or soften historical gesso layers.
