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

Open barley twist candlesticks feature a hollow spiral stem design, a variation of the Solomonic column popularised during the Jacobean Revival and early twentieth-century decorative movements.

These pieces are usually carved from dense hardwoods such as oak or mahogany and fitted with brass or metal sconces at the top to hold candles and protect the wood from heat.

Authentic period examples display prominent grain consistent with English oak, open helical turning, and original metal inserts showing natural age-related patination.

Placing a pair on a modern sideboard, mantelpiece, or dining table introduces warm wood tones and vertical structural interest against contemporary backdrops.

Dust the wooden shafts regularly with a dry cloth, apply natural beeswax polish along the grain, and gently clean wax residue from the metal inserts without abrasive compounds.
