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.

Rococo Revival porcelain features asymmetrical scrollwork, floral encrustations, pastel glazes, and sculpted figurative elements such as putti or cherubs inspired by eighteenth-century French and German designs.

Antique European candelabras of this calibre were crafted from hard-paste porcelain, individually hand-moulded with delicate applied botanical work, painted with enamel pigments, and finished with gilt accents fired in high-temperature kilns.

Authentic pieces generally feature the underglaze blue crossed swords factory mark on the underside, precise hand-painted enamelling, crisp figure moulding, and incised model numbers matching historical factory records.

Position the pair symmetrically on a marble mantelpiece or a dark timber sideboard top to create a structured focal point that contrasts with modern minimalist interiors.

Remove dust using a soft badger-hair brush or dry compressed air, avoiding immersion in water which can degrade internal metal connecting rods or damage fragile applied petals.
