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.

A classical onyx pedestal is a tall, slender architectural column designed to elevate decorative objects such as stone busts, bronzes, or urns. Popularised during the nineteenth century, these pedestals draw direct structural inspiration from ancient Greek and Roman classical orders.

Traditional pedestals of this design are constructed using carved natural onyx or marble, featuring warm translucent veining. Decorative accents often incorporate cast brass or gilt bronze ormolu for capitals, collar rings, and stepped bases.

Authentic period examples feature an internal threaded iron rod running through the stone column, securing the top square slab to the stepped base. Natural variation and subtle hand-carved irregularities in stone sections, paired with patinated bronze fittings, indicate period construction.

Position the pedestal in an alcove or corner to introduce structural height and architectural interest to a space. Displaying a modern bronze sculpture, ceramic vessel, or trailing houseplant creates a vertical focal point that bridges classic and contemporary aesthetics.

Dust stone surfaces regularly using a soft dry cloth, avoiding acidic cleaners or abrasive polish that can etch natural stone. Metallic ormolu mounts should be kept free of moisture and left unpolished to preserve the acquired patina.
