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

A crapaud armchair is a traditional French chair design that emerged in the 19th century, featuring a low profile, padded arms, an upholstered back, and often a deep fringed skirt around the base.

These chairs were typically constructed using solid hardwood frames, traditional coil springs, webbing, horsehair or vegetable fibre padding, and heavy woven upholstery fabrics such as damask, velour, or brocade.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit hand-stitched upholstery understructures, solid wooden frames beneath the padding, period-correct brass castors, and original webbed construction methods.

These armchairs are frequently placed as accent seating in bedrooms, reading nooks, or sitting rooms, pairing well with contemporary minimalist decor to create textural contrast.

Vacuum the fabric using a soft brush attachment to remove dust, keep the seating away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading, and consult professional upholstery conservators for spot cleaning.
