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.

A matching set of four 19th-century French Chateau style salon side chairs formed from carved giltwood with gold leaf finish and light-coloured floral upholstery. Each chair displays scrolling foliate decoration to the show frames, tapestry backs depicting artists and musicians at work, and wear to the seats, raised on elegant carved cabriole legs with scroll feet. The dimensions are 100 cm high, 54 cm wide, and 50 cm deep. These side chairs suit a formal drawing room, a period dining space, or a grand hallway as elegant seating. They bring traditional French decorative character to an interior while providing functional places to sit during gatherings.

FAQs

French salon side chairs from the 19th century were designed as lightweight, decorative seating for formal reception rooms, often featuring Rococo or Louis XV Revival detailing such as cabriole legs and ornate giltwood carving.

These chairs were typically constructed from carved hardwoods like beech or oak, coated with a chalky gesso base, and finished with gold leaf gilding before being upholstered in decorative textiles or woven needlepoint.

Authentic period pieces often exhibit hand-carved floral motifs, traditional wood joinery visible under the seat frame, and natural wear or reddish bole showing through aged gold leaf gilding.

A set of gilded salon chairs can be styled as accent seating in a formal hallway, paired with a contemporary dressing table, or placed around a dining table to create visual contrast.

Clean giltwood surfaces using a soft, dry brush to avoid stripping delicate gold leaf, keep the wood away from direct heat sources to prevent cracking, and dust the upholstery gently without liquid cleaners.
