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 XVI style seating is characterised by Neoclassical design principles, featuring straight geometric lines, fluted turned legs, and classical motifs such as guilloche, rosettes, and ribbon details. Frames are constructed from carved timber and finished with gold leaf gilding.

These pieces feature carved hardwood frames, typically beech or walnut, coated in a gesso layer prior to the application of gold leaf. Upholstery traditionally incorporates natural webbed construction, horsehair stuffing, and woven linen or silk fabrics.

Authentic period examples display signs of hand-carving, original joint construction such as mortise and tenon, and natural wear or oxidisation to the gilded surface where the red or grey clay bole underlayer shows through.

A giltwood canape serves as a focal point in neutral hallways, at the foot of a bed, or paired with contemporary minimalist furniture to create visual contrast through architectural silhouette and texture.

Gilded frames should be dusted gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth or pony hair brush without water or chemical cleaners, which dissolve gold leaf. Upholstery requires regular light vacuuming and professional dry cleaning for spot removal.
