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.

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 gilt bronze and patinated bronze candelabra combines dark, chemically patinated bronze with fire-gilded metal components to create visual contrast. Popularised in France during the 18th and 19th centuries, these lighting fixtures feature classical figures, such as putti or cherubs, holding foliate branches mounted on marble plinths.

19th-century French candelabras typically combine cast bronze, mercury gilding, and hand-carved marble bases, such as Rouge Griotte or Carrara marble. The dark figures are achieved through chemical patination, while bright highlights feature fire-gilded ormolu.

Authentic 19th-century pieces display sharp casting details, hand-chased surface textures, and threaded rod construction beneath the base. Gilt finishes show gentle wear on raised edges, and marble bases often feature hand-cut underside recesses.

Position a single candelabra or a matching pair on a fireplace mantelpiece, sideboard, or console table to add vertical interest and classical texture. They contrast effectively against modern dark paint backdrops or natural stone surfaces.

Dust regularly using a soft, dry camel-hair brush to prevent dirt accumulation in crevices. Avoid liquid metal polishes or chemical cleaners on gilt surfaces and marble, as these can strip gilding and etch natural stone.
