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

Originating during the reign of Napoleon I in the early 19th century, French Empire furniture is characterised by neoclassical proportions, symmetry, rich mahogany veneers, architectural columns, and gilded bronze mounts.

Empire cabinets typically feature solid or veneered flame mahogany, thick marble tops such as rouge or grey varieties, and decorative ormolu architectural fittings.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-carved dovetail joints, original oak or pine drawer linings, heavy cast-bronze mounts with hand-chased details, and dense marble tops cut during the period.

Place the cabinet against a neutral wall as a focal anchor, pairing its dark mahogany tones with contemporary monochrome artwork or minimal ceramic decor to balance the classical ornamentation.

Clean the marble surface using a pH-neutral cleaner designed for natural stone, while dusting the wood veneer regularly with a soft microfibre cloth and applying a natural beeswax polish annually.
