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.

Gothic Revival candlesticks reflect 19th-century enthusiasm for medieval architecture, incorporating ecclesiastical details such as barley-twist columns, castellated drip crowns, heavy knopped stems, and claw or paw feet.

These candlesticks were predominantly cast from heavy brass or bronze, constructed in sectional pieces threaded onto a central iron spindle, and hand-chased with decorative detailing.

Authentic period examples feature substantial cast weight, hand-cut screw threads, natural oxidisation or verdigris in recesses, and period-typical geometric or ecclesiastical tracery.

Place them on a large sideboard, dining table, or fireplace mantelpiece to create dramatic vertical height, contrast against muted wall tones, and introduce warm metallic patination.

Maintain unpolished brass by dusting regularly with a dry microfibre cloth; avoid abrasive metal cleaners to preserve the historic patina, and gently warm hardened candle wax with a hairdryer to lift it without scratching.
