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 fauteuil is an open-arm chair originating in 17th and 18th-century France, characterized by an exposed wooden framework, carved detailing, and gilding with genuine gold leaf.

Carvers constructed frames from hardwoods or pine, coated them with gesso layer, and applied thin gold leaf over clay bole alongside natural silk or woven tapestry upholstery.

Authentic period examples demonstrate signs of age through natural gilding wear revealing the underlayer, hand-carved joinery marks, and traditional upholstery techniques such as hand-tied springs.

Giltwood chairs serve as accent pieces when juxtaposed with modern architecture, paired alongside plain linen sofas, or set against contemporary monochromatic wall colours.

Clean giltwood using a dry soft brush to avoid stripping gold leaf, protect upholstery from direct sunlight to reduce fading, and clean silk textiles using specialized conservation methods.
