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.

A Louis XVI fauteuil typically features a geometric frame, an oval or medallion backrest, fluted turned legs, and open padded armrests with exposed carved wood supports.

These chairs are constructed with solid hardwood frames, such as walnut or beech, and upholstered in hand-stitched wool needlepoint or Petit Point tapestry panels set over webbed seating.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-carved joinery, variations in hand-stitched embroidery tension visible on the reverse, and natural wood oxidisation beneath historical wax or gilded finishes.

Position the armchair as a standalone accent piece alongside minimalist contemporary furniture, or place it within a reading corner paired with a modern brass lamp to create textural contrast.

Vacuum the tapestry gently using a soft brush attachment on low suction, position the piece away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading, and treat exposed frame woodwork with natural beeswax.
