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.

French tapestry weaving gained international prominence during the 14th century, evolving into major production centres such as Gobelins, Beauvais, and Aubusson. These workshops reproduced famous fine art paintings and biblical narrative scenes, serving both as decorative status symbols and thermal insulation for stone walls.

Traditional tapestries are crafted using a warp-and-weft technique on a vertical or horizontal loom. Natural fibres such as wool, silk, and cotton are woven together to build up detailed figurative imagery and intricate border foliage.

Authentic woven tapestries display distinct weave structures on the reverse side, showing thread continuations and hand-stitching. Signed signatures near the bottom border, weaver marks, and natural dye colour variations under close inspection further indicate true textile weaving rather than modern screen printing.

A large tapestry can be mounted using a simple wooden or brass hanging rod to introduce warm textile texture above sideboards, headboards, or in open foyers. Pairing traditional pictorial tapestries with clean-lined contemporary furniture creates a balanced, layered aesthetic.

Tapestries should be kept away from direct sunlight to prevent fibre degradation and colour fading. Occasional gentle dusting using a low-suction vacuum with a soft brush attachment and mesh screen is recommended, while professional dry cleaning should be reserved for structural conservation.
