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.

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 Louis XV style furniture is recognised by its fluid, asymmetrical curves, prominent cabriole legs, and delicate floral or foliate marquetry. Pieces from this period frequently feature decorative ormolu (gilded bronze) mounts at the knees, handles, and sabots to protect and accent the timber.

These pieces are typically constructed using a solid timber carcase covered with decorative wood veneers such as walnut, kingwood, or rosewood. Intricate stringing inlay and marquetry are applied by hand, accompanied by cast brass or bronze ormolu mounts and hand-dovetailed drawer joints.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-cut dovetail drawers, irregular saw marks on rear panels, and unrefined undersides showing age-related oxidation. The ormolu mounts often show hand-chased details and are secured from behind with antique screws or pins rather than modern machine threading.

A matched pair creates natural symmetry when placed on either side of a upholstered bedstead in a modern master bedroom. Alternatively, individual cabinets can function as tall side tables flanking a sofa or serving as accent furniture in an entryway.

Dust timber surfaces regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and apply a high-grade beeswax polish annually along the wood grain. Avoid using abrasive metal cleaners on ormolu mounts, as this can wear away the original gilding or patina; light dusting with a soft brush is recommended.
