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 18th-century France during the Rococo movement, Louis XV seating is characterised by fluid curves, asymmetrical carving, cabriole legs, serpentine frames, and padded armrests designed for informal social gathering.

These chairs were typically constructed from carved native hardwoods such as beech or walnut, prepared with a gesso layer, finished with hand-applied gold leaf water gilding, and upholstered in woven silk or damask fabrics.

Authentic period examples feature pegged mortise-and-tenon joinery, hand-carved floral or rocaille ornamentation, natural wear exposing red bole under the gilding, and occasional cabinetmaker stamps under the seat rails.

Placing a carved fauteuil alongside clean-lined modern furniture creates a compelling architectural contrast, allowing the chair to function as a focal accent piece in living rooms, dressing areas, or hallways.

Giltwood frames should be dusted gently using a soft dry brush without water or chemical solvents, while delicate silk damask requires light vacuuming through a mesh screen to remove surface particles.
