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.

Louis XVI elbow chairs, or fauteuils a la reine, are defined by Neo-Classical symmetry, geometric frames, oval or rectangular backs, and straight fluted legs inspired by classical Greek and Roman architecture.

Traditional construction involves carved solid wood, often beech or walnut, coated with gesso before silver leaf is applied and sealed, combined with hand-woven upholstery fabrics such as silk brocade or damask.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-carved joinery, traditional peg construction, signs of natural oxidisation to the leafing, and proportional details specific to eighteenth- or nineteenth-century French cabinetmaking.

These decorative seats function well as accent chairs in a formal living room, paired alongside modern minimalist sofas, or positioned in a spacious master bedroom suite to add texture and metallic contrast.

Dust giltwood frames gently using a soft, dry camel-hair brush, avoiding liquid cleaners which dissolve gesso. Vacuum fabric upholstery using a low-suction attachment protected by a mesh screen.
