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.

Silver-plated candlesticks gained widespread adoption during the nineteenth century following the commercial development of electroplating in the 1840s, allowing ornate designs to be created at a lower cost than solid sterling silver. These pieces frequently emulated Georgian and Victorian silver lighting styles for formal dining rooms.

These items typically feature a base metal core, such as brass or nickel silver, coated with a layer of pure silver via electrodeposition. Decorative relief details are achieved through casting or stamping, with stems weighted internally using resin or pitch to ensure stability.

Authentic pieces often bear maker stamps or acronyms such as EPNS (Electroplated Nickel Silver) on the rim or underside, along with subtle wear to high points where the underlying base metal becomes visible through the silver coating.

A pair of silver candlesticks can be arranged on a dining table, mantelpiece, or sideboard alongside modern glass or ceramic tableware. The metallic lustre provides a decorative contrast when placed against dark wood or contemporary painted surfaces.

Clean silver-plated objects gently using a soft cotton cloth and a non-abrasive polish designed specifically for plated metals. Abrasive cleaners and chemical dips should be avoided, as they can strip the thin layer of surface silver.
