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.

A chamberstick is a portable candlestick featuring a flat base pan and a handle, historically designed for carrying candles from room to room at night. Popular during the 18th century, these lighting fixtures prevented dripping wax from damaging flooring and furnishings.

Period brass chambersticks were typically cast using molten copper-zinc alloys poured into sand or clay moulds. The individual components, including the handle, socket, and drip tray, were hand-finished and joined using hard solder or rivets.

Authentic 18th-century examples often exhibit irregular casting marks, hand-filed surfaces, and visible joinery such as copper-rich soldering seams. Wear patterns on the base, uneven wall thickness, and historical oxidisation in crevices also indicate period manufacture.

These items are frequently arranged in pairs on mantelpieces, sideboards, or bedside tables to add visual warmth and historical texture. They function well within traditional, farmhouse, or French provincial spaces alongside understated ceramic and wooden decorative objects.

Dust the surfaces regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and avoid harsh chemical abrasives that can strip historical patina. Residual candle wax can be softened with warm water and gently removed using a soft wooden tool to prevent scratching the metal.
