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 XVI style furniture, originating in the late 18th century, is characterised by neoclassical design principles including straight lines, geometric symmetry, fluted tapered legs, and decorative classical motifs inspired by Greco-Roman antiquity.

Salon suites from this period were typically crafted from solid carved hardwoods, such as beech or walnut, coated with gesso and decorated using water-gilding techniques with thin gold leaf, complemented by woven silk or damask upholstery.

Authentic pieces feature hand-carved joinery, natural wear to the gilded gesso revealing underlying bole clay, classical fluted leg details, and hand-stitched traditional webbed upholstery construction.

A giltwood suite works effectively as a focal point in a formal reception room, contrasted against neutral modern walls, architectural mouldings, or paired with contemporary art to create visual depth.

Giltwood surfaces should be dusted lightly with a dry feather duster or dry microfibre cloth, avoiding water, solvents, or commercial polishes which can dissolve delicate gesso and gold leaf layers.
