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.

Originating in the mid-19th century, Rococo Revival drew heavy inspiration from 18th-century French Louis XV furniture. Key features include asymmetrical curves, ornate floral and rocaille carving, cabriole legs, and gilded or dark timber finishes.

Frames were typically carved from carved hardwoods or softwoods like beech or pine, covered with layers of gesso preparation, and finished with gold leaf gilding. Upholstery frequently featured silk damasks, brocades, or jacquard weaves.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-carved details, genuine water or oil gilding with natural surface patination, and period joinery techniques such as mortise and tenon joints under the seat rails. Standard modern machine screws and synthetic foam padding are absent in original constructions.

Giltwood side chairs function as striking accent pieces in contemporary spaces, such as flanking a hallway console table, positioning in a master bedroom corner, or serving as end chairs for a modern dining setting.

Giltwood frames should be kept away from direct heat sources and high humidity to prevent gesso flaking, and cleaned gently with a dry soft brush rather than water or chemical polishes. Silk textiles require protection from direct sunlight to prevent UV degradation.
