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 French Empire basket chandelier features an upper tent of octagonal crystal beads tapering from a brass crown down to a central ring, forming a lower basket composed of draped crystals or prisms.

Authentic Empire chandeliers were constructed using cast brass or bronze frames, decorated with classical motifs such as palmettes, and dressed with hand-cut glass or crystal beads and prisms.

Identification involves checking for hand-pinned wire connections joining the crystal strands, irregular hand-cut facets on individual glass drops, and natural oxidisation on the brass frame.

Position the fitting over a dining table, above a kitchen island, or in a hallway to serve as a period focal point against neutral walls and contemporary architectural features.

Dust regularly with a microfibre duster, and clean individual crystals using a soft cloth lightly dampened with a mild spirit-based solution, avoiding contact between moisture and wire pins.
