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

Louis XVI style furniture developed in late 18th-century France as a return to Neoclassical principles, moving away from Rococo curves toward straight lines, geometric symmetry, fluted columns, and classical marquetry.

These pieces frequently incorporate fine wood veneers such as kingwood, tulipwood, or rosewood arranged in geometric parquetry, accented with gilt-brass or ormolu mounts and pierced gallery rims.

Authentic period examples feature hand-cut joinery, solid cast and chased brass mounts with historic oxidisation, precise hand-laid parquetry veneers, and age-consistent wear on foot terminals and shelf undersides.

An etagere functions as an accent side table beside seating or in entryways, providing open display tiers for curated ceramics, small sculptures, or books without visually overwhelming small rooms.

Maintain wood surfaces by dusting with a dry microfibre cloth and applying natural beeswax sparingly, while avoiding moisture near veneer edges. Clean brass rims gently without harsh chemical abrasives to preserve the aged surface finish.
