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

A French Louis XVI style open armchair, traditionally termed a fauteuil, features a rectilinear carved wood frame, open spaces below the armrests, and straight, tapered fluted legs inspired by classical antiquity.

These chairs were typically constructed from carved hardwoods such as beechwood, finished with gesso and hand-applied gold leaf gilding, and fitted with traditional woven webbing and upholstered cushions.

authentic turn-of-the-century pieces exhibit hand-carved details like rosettes at the seat joints, subtle wear revealing the red bole under the gilding, traditional joinery, and refined classical proportions.

A gilded fauteuil makes a compelling accent piece when juxtaposed with modern graphic fabric, set against dark painted walls, or placed near contemporary art to blend historical detail with modern design.

Dust giltwood frames gently with a soft, dry brush to preserve delicate leafing, avoid water or chemical solvents, and maintain upholstery by vacuuming gently with a soft attachment.
