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.

A 19th-century French button-back sofa is characterised by deep diamond-tufted cushioning, an organically curved silhouette, and decorative scrollwork. Popularised during the Napoleon III era, these pieces prioritize plush upholstery over visible exposed woodwork.

Traditional French sofas are constructed with solid hardwood internal frames, typically beech or walnut. The seating support utilises hand-tied coil springs, natural burlap, horsehair padding, and turned timber legs fitted with brass castors.

Authentic pieces feature pegged mortise and tenon joinery, hand-turned hardwood legs, and traditional coil spring webbing beneath the upholstery layer. Original brass castors and hand-carved framing details also signify period construction.

An antique French sofa can be reupholstered in contemporary fabrics such as textured linen, boucle, or neutral wool to contrast classical curved lines with modern minimalism. Placing it alongside sleek contemporary side tables creates a balanced interior arrangement.

Upholstered fabric should be gently cleaned using a soft brush attachment on a low-suction vacuum cleaner. Exposed timber legs can be conditioned periodically with natural beeswax, while direct sunlight exposure should be avoided to prevent fabric fading.
