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

Originally created in 17th-century France, a torchere was designed as a tall, slender pedestal to hold a candelabrum or oil lamp, elevating lighting sources above eye level to illuminate large rooms.

High-grade dense hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, and rosewood were predominantly used, often incorporating hand-turned shafts, carved cabriole legs, and galleried tops.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-carved details, original joinery marks beneath the top, natural dark oxidisation in unvarnished areas, and signs of age-related wear on the feet and spindle galleries.

Torcheres function effectively in contemporary spaces as pedestals for ceramic vases, sculptural artworks, or cascading house plants, adding vertical interest to empty corners or framing doorways.

Dust regularly using a soft, dry microfibre cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year to preserve the wood moisture and finish, avoiding direct sunlight and strong heat sources.
