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.

19th-century French armchairs often draw inspiration from classical Louis XIV and Regence styles, featuring flowing carved wooden frames, open arms, and decorative stretchers. They combine formal proportions with comfortable upholstered seating suitable for salons.

Craftsmen typically utilised dense hardwoods such as walnut, oak, and beech for the frames, secured with traditional mortise and tenon joinery. High-end examples featured hand-carved details and layered upholstery built with natural fibres, springs, and webbing.

Look for signs of hand-carving along the timber frame, peg construction, and natural age wear on the wood surface. Authentic period pieces also display historic tool marks on hidden underside rails and structural timber framework.

Pairing classical carved wooden frames with vibrant contemporary upholstery creates a striking focal point in neutral rooms. Position them as a conversational pair opposite a sleek modern sofa or flanking a minimalist side table.

Vacuum the upholstery gently with a soft brush attachment and treat timber elements with high-grade beeswax paste to preserve the wood finish. Keep the chairs away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent timber warping and fabric fading.
