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.

Ruby glass, often created using gold chloride, gained widespread popularity during the 19th century in Britain and Europe. Candle holders featuring etched ruby glass shades combined utility and decorative flair, designed to shield candlelight from drafts while casting a warm glow across dining rooms and parlours.

These items typically feature hand-blown or molded glass tinted red using metallic salts, often etched with acid or wheel-cut patterns. The bases are constructed from electroplated nickel silver or brass, giving the appearance of sterling silver at a more accessible production standard.

Authentic period pieces often show minor variations in the glass shade thickness, pontil scars at the base of blown glass, and subtle wear or tarnishing to the silver-plated surfaces where handling was frequent. Markings on the metal base may indicate the maker or electroplating standard.

A pair of ruby glass holders works well as a symmetrical accent on a fireplace mantelpiece, sideboard, or dining table centrepiece. Their deep hue pairs effectively with dark wood finishes, brass accents, or neutral minimalist settings requiring a pop of colour.

Clean glass shades using warm water and mild dish soap with a microfibre cloth, avoiding abrasive pads that could scratch etched details. Silver-plated bases should be gently polished with a specialist silver silver cloth to prevent stripping the thin layer of plating.
