Archival Detail
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 seat featuring exposed wooden framing, padded armrests with maniches, and an upholstered backrest. The Louis XV style is characterised by asymmetrical curves, cabriole legs, scrolled feet, and hand-carved motifs such as flowers or foliage along the frame top and apron.

19th-century French fauteuils were predominantly crafted using dense hardwoods such as walnut, oak, or beechwood. Upholstery traditionally incorporated natural fibre fillings like horsehair and tow over steel spring systems, secured with decorative brass studs or trim.

Authentic period armchairs feature hand-carved wood details showing slight variations, mortise-and-tenon joinery secured with wooden pegs, and age-appropriate surface patination on the frame. The underside of the seat frame often reveals traditional webbing and hand-sewn construction methods.

Pairing carved antique fauteuils with sleek contemporary sofas creates a balanced contrast of textures and lines. Placing a pair opposite a low-profile modern coffee table or within a quiet reading corner adds historical architecture and visual texture to modern living spaces.

Keep wooden frames away from direct heat sources and high humidity to prevent timber movement or cracking. Dust timber frames with a soft, dry cloth and apply natural beeswax sparingly, while vacuuming textile upholstery gently with a brush attachment.
