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.

FAQs

Louis XV style vitrines are characterised by their serpentine curves, cabriole legs, and gilt-bronze ormolu mounts. They feature glazed front and side panels alongside hand-painted or marquetry lower panels designed to display valued collectibles.

These cabinets typically feature exotic wood veneers such as kingwood, rosewood, or tulipwood laid over a solid frame. They are embellished with cast and chased gilt-bronze mounts, curved glass panels, and hand-painted Vernis Martin lacquer panels.

Authentic pieces generally display hand-chased ormolu mounts secured with threaded screws, fine dovetail joinery, and age-related wear to the gilding and varnish. The glass is often mouth-blown or hand-cut, displaying subtle imperfections or slight variations in thickness.

A vitrine can be positioned against a neutral wall in a living room, hallway, or dining space to create a structural focal point. Designers frequently pair these classical cabinets with contemporary artwork or minimalist decor to create a balanced contrast.

Glass panels should be cleaned with a soft microfibre cloth slightly dampened with water, taking care to avoid moisture contact with gilded mounts or painted woodwork. Metal mounts require dry dusting, while wood finishes should be kept away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent timber movement.
