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.

These are decorative multi-arm candle holders originating in 19th-century France, combining enamel work techniques (cloisonne) with gilded bronze mounts (ormolu).

Craftsmen typically utilised cast bronze with gilt finish (ormolu), vitreous enamel fused onto copper wire cells (cloisonne), and carved marble bases for weight and stability.

Authentic period examples feature heavy cast-bronze mounts with hand-chased detailing, hand-drawn wire dividers in the cloisonne enamel, and historical threaded rod assembly.

Position them as a symmetrical pair on a sideboard, mantelpiece, or console table to introduce colour, pattern, and metallic contrast into traditional or eclectic interior schemes.

Dust regularly with a soft, dry natural-bristle brush, avoiding liquid polishes, water, or abrasive cleaning agents that can remove original gilding or compromise enamel surfaces.
