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.

The Louis XV style, prominent in 18th-century France, is defined by Rococo influences including sinuous curves, cabriole legs, asymmetrical motifs, and decorative carved aprons.

French commodes were typically constructed from native hardwoods such as walnut, oak, and fruitwood, often featuring hand-forged brass or gilt-bronze drawer pulls and key escutcheons.

Authentic pieces display hand-carved joinery, dovetail construction on drawer boxes, authentic oxidisation on hardware, and curved structural frames without straight lines.

Positioning a carved timber commode against a neutral backdrop paired with modern artwork creates a balanced visual contrast between historic craftsmanship and minimalist design.

Apply a natural beeswax polish along the wood grain periodically and keep the timber away from direct heat sources or high humidity to preserve the original finish.
