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.

Originating in 18th and 19th-century France, table lustres are decorative garnitures designed to refract candle or electric light using faceted glass or crystal prisms suspended from a metal or glass framework.

These decorative pieces typically feature cast brass, bronze, or gilded metal bases adorned with hand-cut or moulded lead crystal drops, prisms, and octagonal beads.

Authentic period examples often display heavy cast metal bases with natural surface patination, hand-strung wire connections between crystal beads, and slight variations in the cut-glass prisms.

Position them as a symmetrical pair on a dining table centrepiece, a hallway console table, or a fireplace mantelpiece to introduce light refraction and classical decorative structure to contemporary spaces.

Dust the metal base and crystal drops regularly with a soft, dry cloth; for deeper cleaning, wipe individual prisms using a microfibre cloth slightly dampened with water and mild soap, avoiding moisture on original metal wire joins.
