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 upholstered beds, particularly those from the Louis XVI and Provincial periods, typically feature carved timber frames, fluted legs, and padded fabric panels. Many designs incorporate a curved footboard, often referred to as a corbeille design, which wraps slightly around the base of the mattress.

These bed frames were historically crafted from hardwoods such as oak, beech, or walnut, joined using traditional mortise and tenon techniques. The limed finish was achieved by applying a lime paste into the open grain of the wood to highlight the timber structure and protect against insects.

Authentic period frames feature hand-carved decorative motifs, such as ribbon twists, acanthus leaves, or floral crests, which show subtle variations. The frame joinery will often exhibit original iron bolt connections or dropped wooden peg construction where the side rails meet the headboard and footboard.

A limed timber bed pairs well with relaxed linen bedding in neutral tones to complement the soft wood finish. Incorporating contemporary lighting or minimalist bedside tables creates a balanced look that contrasts structured modern design with classical carved wood details.

Maintain the timber by dusting with a dry, soft cloth and avoiding water or harsh chemical cleaners that may strip the limed treatment. Upholstered panels should be vacuumed regularly with a soft brush attachment and spot-cleaned using fabric-safe solutions.
