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

French Louis XV style furniture is characterised by serpentine curves, cabriole legs, delicate floral marquetry, and elaborate gilt-bronze ormolu mounts that highlight the natural lines of the piece.

These cabinets are typically constructed with fine wood veneers such as kingwood or tulipwood, intricate floral marquetry inlays, cast ormolu mounts, and shaped marble tops.

Authentic pieces feature hand-chased gilt-bronze mounts, fine dovetail joinery in oak or fruitwood secondary timbers, heavy cast fittings, and natural surface patination on veneers and marble.

Positioning a pair of ornate cabinets in a contemporary hallway, dining space, or drawing room creates visual weight and contrast when set against modern artwork and clean architectural lines.

Dust surfaces regularly with a soft dry cloth, keep away from direct sunlight and radiators to prevent wood movement, and avoid chemical polishes that can damage ormolu lacquer.
