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

Louis XVI style Boulle furniture features rectilinear forms, geometric neoclassicism, and ornate marquetry techniques developed by Andre-Charles Boulle, combining brass, tortoiseshell, and ebonised timber.

Boulle work typically incorporates brass and tortoiseshell inlays set into an ebonised wood carcase, finished with chased gilt-bronze ormolu mounts and marble tabletops.

Authentic pieces feature heavy, finely chased gilt-bronze mounts, hand-cut brass and tortoiseshell inlay, solid timber internal framing, and natural age-related movement or fine cracking along veneer joints.

Position these cabinets symmetrically as flanking pieces in a hallway, dining room, or drawing room, balancing their decorative surface with neutral wall tones and contemporary artwork.

Keep items away from direct heat sources and moisture to prevent brass lifting or wood warping, dusting lightly with a dry microfibre cloth and applying specialised microcrystalline wax periodically.
