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

A French silvered bronze chandelier features a cast bronze frame finished with silver gilding or electroplating, typically executed in Neoclassical or Rococo revival styles. Popularised in the nineteenth century, these fixtures combine detailed sculptured metalwork with a lustrous metallic surface.

These lighting fixtures were cast from solid bronze alloy, hand-chased to refine intricate decorative details, and finished with silver leaf or silver plating. The candle sleeves were historically crafted from rolled card, wood, or coated metal designed to resemble beeswax candles.

Authentic period examples exhibit crisp hand-chased detailing across the bronze casting, noticeable weight from solid construction, and natural oxidisation or tarnish in recessed areas. Examination of the central column and arm junctions often reveals hand-fitted threaded components rather than modern uniform assembly.

A silvered bronze chandelier acts as a central focal point above a dining table, inside a spacious entrance hall, or over a kitchen island. The cool metallic finish complements modern neutral colour palettes and bridges traditional character with contemporary styling.

Dust the structure regularly using a dry, soft microfibre cloth or a natural feather duster. Avoid chemical metal polishes or abrasive creams, as these can strip the original delicate silver finish, requiring only light spot cleaning with a damp cloth when necessary.
