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.

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

The Louis XV style emerged in 18th-century France, characterised by Rococo elements such as asymmetric curves, flowing foliage, cabriole legs, and elaborate gilt bronze ormolu mounts. Furniture from this period emphasizes comfort, elegance, and intricate surface decoration including parquetry and porcelain inserts.

These tables are typically constructed using fine hardwoods such as rosewood, kingwood, or tulipwood arranged in parquetry or marquetry patterns. Decorative accents feature cast gilt bronze ormolu mounts and hand-painted porcelain plaques inspired by Sevres designs.

Look for distinctive S-shaped cabriole legs, hand-chased brass or bronze ormolu fittings protecting the feet and corners, and precise wood veneering. Authentic construction often shows traditional joinery techniques and hand-painted details on decorative ceramic panels.

Position the piece as a focal point in a home office, library, or hallway, paired with modern neutral wall tones to highlight its rich timber and gilded details. Combining ornate French antiques with minimalist contemporary seating creates a balanced contrast.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh liquid cleaners that could damage lacquer finishes or porcelain plaques. Keep the item away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent timber shrinkage and veneer lifting.
