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.

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

Louis XVI style seating emerged in the late 18th century, defined by neoclassical symmetry, geometric framing, straight tapered or fluted legs, and medallion-shaped backrests inspired by classical antiquity.

These pieces traditionally feature carved hardwood frames, such as beech, walnut, or mahogany, fitted with hand-woven natural cane backrests and seats, and occasionally decorated with painted central plaques.

Authentic characteristics include linear shapes, restrained decorative carving like rosettes or ribbon twists, architectural leg designs, and balanced, restrained proportions compared to the earlier Rococo style.

They function effectively as contrast accent seating in modern living areas or foyers, where their detailed silhouettes pop against clean architectural lines and neutral colour palettes.

Maintain stable humidity to prevent cane from drying out, periodically clean with a damp soft cloth, avoid direct heat sources, and treat carved wooden frames with microcrystalline wax.
