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 XIV furniture is recognised for grand proportions, symmetrical structures, and elaborate wood carvings. Seating from this period frequently incorporates heavy stretchers, ornate scrolled legs, and rich upholstery detailing.

Craftsmen typically constructed frames from hardwoods such as walnut, beech, or oak, which were often painted or gilded. Upholstery utilised natural fibres including linen, wool, or silk, frequently finished with woven fringe or braided trim.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-carved joinery, irregular tool marks, and evidence of historical hand-stitching on the upholstery framework. Natural timber shrinkage and layered wear on painted finishes further indicate genuine age.

Positioning the stool at the foot of a bed, beneath a console table, or alongside an armchair introduces texture and historical contrast. Neutral fabric palettes allow historical seating to complement contemporary minimalism effortlessly.

Keep timber frames away from direct heat sources and high humidity to prevent cracking or paint flaking. Dust upholstery regularly using a soft brush attachment and address fabric cleaning through specialist conservation methods.
