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.

French crystal chandeliers from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries typically feature cast bronze or brass frames with elaborate scrollwork, acanthus leaves, and rococo curves, dressed with faceted lead crystal drops designed to reflect and refract candle or electric light.

These lighting fixtures are constructed using cast bronze or brass frames, often finished with fire-gilding or gold lacquer, paired with hand-cut glass or lead crystal drops attached by wire pins.

Authentic period pieces exhibit substantial weight from cast bronze, hand-chased surface details, wire-bound crystal attachments, and subtle surface patination or wear to the gilded layer around high-contact areas.

An ornate French chandelier is commonly hung as a focal piece directly above a dining table, within a formal entryway, or suspended in high-ceilinged living rooms to contrast structured modern furniture with historical decorative detailing.

Preservation requires dusting crystals regularly with a dry microfiber cloth and cleaning glass drops individually using a mild alcohol-and-water solution, while avoiding harsh chemical polishes on gilded metal surfaces.
