Archival Detail
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.

French wingback armchairs, often associated with Louis XV or French Provincial designs, feature enclosed upholstered sides, exposed carved wooden frames, and winged projections designed to protect the sitter from draughts.

Authentic French armchairs feature frames crafted from solid hardwoods such as oak, beech, or walnut, joined with traditional mortise and tenon timber framing, coil-sprung seating, and upholstery in natural fabrics like velvet, linen, or wool.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-carved detail along the crest rail and apron, original pegging at timber joinery points, subtle asymmetry in hand-carved floral motifs, and genuine historical wear or patination on the exposed frame.

Position a pair of French wingback armchairs opposite a contemporary sofa or alongside a minimalist stone fireplace to create textural depth and contrast between historic woodcarving and modern lines.

Vacuum velvet upholstery gently using a soft brush attachment in the direction of the pile, blot spills immediately without rubbing, and dust timber frames with a soft cloth while applying beeswax sparingly to preserve the wood grain.
