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 XV style French cane chairs are characterised by curved cabriole legs, subtle carved motifs, and lightweight woven rattan panels. Originating in 18th-century France, this design shifted away from rigid seating towards comfortable, flexible forms suited to informal salon culture.

These chairs were traditionally crafted from solid hardwoods such as beech, walnut, or oak, often finished with paint or gesso layers. The seats and back panels feature hand-woven rattan cane, selected for its flexibility and breathability.

Authentic period examples display hand-carved joinery, peg construction, and slightly irregular hand-woven cane patterns. Frame surfaces often show natural wear through paint layers, alongside hand-planed timber on the undersides.

Painted French chairs can be paired with a simple rustic oak dining table to balance ornate detailing with modern minimalism. Placing them in a neutral-toned space adds woven texture without overwhelming contemporary colour schemes.

To preserve woven cane, maintain consistent room humidity to prevent the natural fibres from drying out and cracking. Clean painted frames with a soft, dry cloth, avoiding abrasive chemical cleaners that may damage aged paint finishes.
