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.

Aubusson verdure tapestries are hand-woven French wall coverings featuring dense botanical foliage, woodland scenery, and garden landscapes that were produced primarily in the town of Aubusson from the sixteenth century onwards.

Traditional tapestries were hand-woven on low-warp looms using natural wool warp threads combined with wool and silk weft yarns dyed with botanical extracts.

Authentic period tapestries exhibit slight irregularities in the hand-woven weave, subtle color variations from natural vegetable dyes, and visible thread structures on the reverse side rather than uniform machine stitching.

Tapestry cushions bring depth and tactical texture when placed against neutral linen sofas, structured armchairs, or crisp modern upholstery to bridge contemporary and historical design elements.

To preserve fragile textile fibers, gently vacuum the surface through a fine mesh screen, avoid direct sunlight to prevent colour fading, and seek specialised conservation dry cleaning if required.
