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

Open armchairs, often styled after French Louis XV designs, feature exposed carved wooden frames with open spaces beneath the armrests. Popularised in the late 19th century, these pieces blended historic rococo curves with solid walnut construction and intricate upholstery.

These chairs typically feature solid hardwood frames, such as carved walnut or mahogany, paired with hand-woven wool or silk tapestry upholstery. Traditional construction includes mortise and tenon joinery, webbed seats with coil springs, and brass stud trim.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-carved decorative motifs, original upholstery tacks or studs, and hand-joined frame construction. Inspection of the underside often reveals traditional horsehair padding, burlap webbing, and natural wood oxidisation consistent with age.

A carved tapestry armchair functions as a singular accent piece in a modern living space or reading corner. Pairing the detailed woodwork with plain wall finishes or minimalist side tables allows the textured upholstery and carved frame to remain a key focal point.

Dust tapestry panels gently using a soft brush attachment on a low-suction vacuum cleaner. Keep the wood frame away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent drying or fading, and apply a natural beeswax paste periodically to protect the walnut finish.
