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

Originating in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, French iron beds feature tubular metal frames, decorative brass accents, and subtle scrolling motifs typical of provincial and Art Nouveau metalwork.

These bedsteads were typically forged from wrought iron or cast iron for structural support, complemented by turned solid brass finials, collars, and decorative scrollwork.

Authentic pieces display hand-cast joints, poured iron connections, original brass castors, and often feature non-standard sizing designed for traditional French mattresses.

A pair of single frames can be styled together in a guest room with neutral linen bedding, or joined to create a unified super king bed frame for a boutique aesthetic.

Clean painted iron surfaces with a damp cloth and mild detergent, while brass elements can be maintained using microcrystalline wax to prevent tarnishing and oxidisation without destroying the aged patina.
