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

A torchere column is a tall, slender pedestal originally designed to hold candlesticks or lamps, which evolved during the late 19th century into decorative stands for displaying classical sculptures, bronzes, or urns.

High-end 19th-century pedestals were predominantly crafted from decorative natural stones such as band-veined onyx, alabaster, or marble, often mounted with gilt bronze or brass Corinthian capitals and bases.

Authentic period pieces feature organic variations in stone veining, cool surface temperatures, hand-chased gilt bronze or ormolu mounts with classical detail, and traditional threaded steel rods running through the core.

These architectural elements function effectively in formal entryways, framing doorways, or standing in alcoves to elevate contemporary ceramic art, stone busts, or structural botanical arrangements.

Dust surfaces regularly with a soft microfibre cloth and clean the natural stone using only pH-neutral marble cleaners, avoiding acidic sprays or harsh chemical polishes that erode stone gloss and metal finishes.
