Archival Detail
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.

Louis XV style armchairs, commonly termed fauteuils, are defined by fluid curves, rococo carved foliage, cabriole legs, and open padded armrests.

Traditional giltwood furniture utilizes hand-carved hardwood frames covered in layers of gesso, which are then gilded with thin gold leaf and paired with woven textiles.

Authentic period chairs often display hand-carved joinery marks, natural surface wear revealing underlying gesso or red bole, and period-appropriate wood carving variations.

Positioning a pair of carved giltwood armchairs alongside minimalist modern sofas provides a structured focal point that balances classical detail with clean contemporary lines.

Dust giltwood frames delicately with a soft microfibre cloth without liquid polish, and vacuum textile upholstery carefully using a low-suction brush attachment.
