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 beds typically feature graceful serpentine crests, hand-carved floral and foliate motifs, asymmetrical scrolls, and slender cabriole legs. Popularised in eighteenth-century France, this Rococo design prioritises fluid curves and romantic timber detailing over rigid symmetry.

These bed frames were primarily crafted from dense European hardwoods like solid walnut, oak, or fruitwood, featuring hand-cut mortise and tenon joinery. Fine examples showcase figured walnut grain patterns finished with traditional natural wax or shellac French polish.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-carved details with subtle organic variations, hand-saw marks on rear or concealed surfaces, and iron drop-in bracket fittings or wooden pegs securing the side rails. Aged walnut displays deep natural patination and slight timber shrinkage near the joinery.

Balance the dramatic wood grain and Rococo curves by styling the frame with simple neutral linens, crisp white bedding, and minimal decorative pillows. Pair the bed with modern lighting fixtures or understated side tables to allow the timber craftsmanship to act as the primary anchor in the room.

Dust the intricate relief carvings regularly using a soft dry brush or microfibre cloth. Apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice per year, buffing gently along the timber grain, and keep the bedstead away from direct heat sources and damp external walls to prevent timber movement.
