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

Lighting from these eras is characterised by dramatic scrollwork, acanthus leaf motifs, and elaborate symmetry or sweeping curves. Giltwood finishes were widely employed to reflect candlelight and create an impression of opulence within period interiors.

These pieces were typically hand-carved from softwoods like pine or lime, coated with layers of gesso plaster, and finished with red bole clay before gold leaf was applied. Electrical components such as brass bulb sockets and faux-candle sleeves were usually added during later conversions.

Look for hand-carving marks, natural craquelure in the gesso, and areas where the gold leaf has worn away to reveal the reddish-brown clay bole beneath. Original candlestick standards will often display filled holes or modified tops where electrical wiring was later installed.

Position the base on a sleek sideboard or console table to create visual contrast against contemporary furniture. Pair it with a simple, neutral linen or silk drum shade to balance the elaborate carved detailing.

Dust gently using a soft, dry camel-hair brush or microfibre cloth to avoid lifting delicate gold leaf. Avoid liquid cleaners, polish, or damp sponges, as water will dissolve the underlying traditional gesso ground.
