An incredibly beautiful pair of antique French carved walnut salon armchairs. They were made in France, we would date them to around the 1880-1900 period.

The quality is outstanding, with deep and intricate floral carving throughout. They are a useful size, with generous proportions and perfect for use in various settings around the home.

We have had the frames polished, and they have been re-upholstered in a cream cotton fabric. The condition is excellent for their age, with some minor wear and patina remaining on the frames here and there.

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

The Louis XV style, often referred to as Rococo, is characterised by asymmetrical curves, naturalistic floral carvings, cabriole legs, and a sense of lightness and elegance compared to earlier heavier architectural forms.

These pieces typically utilise solid native hardwoods such as walnut or beech, joined with traditional mortise and tenon joinery, and feature hand-carved decorative motifs alongside traditional upholstery techniques involving horsehair and webbing.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit period-appropriate tool marks, hand-carved detailing with natural irregularities, traditional joinery without modern metal fasteners, and appropriate patina on the exposed wood surfaces.

Pairing these historical pieces with contemporary minimalist furnishings creates a curated, eclectic contrast that highlights the intricate woodwork and sculptural silhouettes without overwhelming the space.

Preservation requires keeping wooden frames away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent cracking, periodically applying appropriate wax polish, and protecting delicate upholstery from moisture and heavy friction.
