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.

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

Louis XV armchairs, often referred to as fauteuils, developed during the mid-18th century Rococo period in France. They are distinguished by sweeping cabriole legs, asymmetrical floral carvings, shaped seat frames, and exposed timber arms with padded elbow rests.

Master cabinetmakers typically crafted these frames from native French hardwoods such as walnut, beech, or oak, often finished with wax or gilding. Upholstery traditionally incorporated natural horsehair padding, steel springs, and hand-woven silk brocade, wool tapestry, or floral needlework.

Authentic Louis XV fauteuils feature hand-carved floral or shell motifs along the crest rail and apron, with visible wooden peg joinery rather than modern screws. Examining the underside of the frame reveals hand-sawn timber marks, natural oxidisation of the wood, and evidence of historical upholstery work.

A pair of Louis XV fauteuils can serve as sculptural focal points in a modern living space when paired alongside a minimalist sofa. Positioned symmetrically near a fireplace or window, their carved wooden frames and patterned upholstery add texture and classical balance to minimalist or transitional interiors.

Dust timber frames regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a clear beeswax polish annually to nourish the wood. Keep upholstered sections out of direct sunlight to prevent fabric degradation and colour fading, and clean embroidered textiles using low-suction vacuuming with a soft brush attachment.
