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

French Louis XVI style bedsteads are characterised by rectilinear frames, classical symmetry, fluted columns, carved motifs such as shells or foliage, and integrated upholstered panels.

These bedsteads are typically constructed from dense hardwoods such as beech or oak, finished with hand-applied paint or gesso, and fitted with woven linen or cotton upholstery.

Authentic period examples feature traditional mortise and tenon joinery, original cast iron rail connectors, natural wood shrinkage around panel borders, and layered paint finishes exhibiting age-appropriate patina.

Pair the structured frame with neutral linen bedding, understated bedside tables, and subtle lighting to balance the ornate carved detailing with contemporary simplicity.

Vacuum the fabric upholstery regularly using a soft brush attachment, dust painted woodwork with a dry microfibre cloth, and keep the frame away from direct heat sources and moisture.
