Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

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.

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

Florentine giltwood chandeliers are defined by hand-carved wooden or wrought metal frames coated in gesso and finished with applied gold leaf, drawing inspiration from Italian Renaissance and Baroque architectural motifs.

These light fittings typically combine hand-carved softwoods or wrought iron components, coated with gesso plaster and layered with gold leaf gilding over a red clay bole base.

Authenticity is indicated by carved joinery beneath the gesso surface, natural wear to the gilded finish revealing the underlying red bole base coat, and original candle sconce construction.

Position the chandelier as a central focal point in a dining room, hallway, or living area, allowing the warm metallic finish to contrast against contemporary neutral walls and clean-lined furniture.

Dust gently using a soft, dry ostrich feather duster or dry microfibre cloth, taking care to avoid water, liquid cleaners, or solvent polishes that dissolve historical gesso and gilded surfaces.
