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 Empire furniture is characterised by Neoclassical architectural forms, dark woods such as mahogany, symmetrical structures, and brass or ormolu mounts inspired by classical antiquity.

Pieces from this era typically feature flame mahogany veneers over solid oak or pine frameworks, complemented by gilt-bronze or cast brass mounts, drawer pulls, and marble or brass-galleried tops.

Authentic period semainiers demonstrate hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, oak secondary timbers, hand-drawn brass mouldings, and evidence of historical hand-planing on rear panels and drawer bases.

A semainier functions well in compact bedrooms, dressing rooms, or hallway alcoves, offering substantial vertical storage while contrasting cleanly against contemporary painted walls or minimalist architectural backdrop details.

Mahogany surfaces require occasional waxing with a natural beeswax polish applied along the grain, while brass fittings should be kept free of harsh abrasive cleaners to preserve historic patination.
