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

A bag chandelier, also known as a pouch or basket chandelier, features concentric metal rings from which cascading strands of glass prisms or cut crystal beads form a tapered bag-shaped enclosure around the lamp holder.

Traditional bag chandeliers are constructed using cast brass, bronze, or gilded metal frames that support hand-cut lead crystal drops, glass buttons, and wire links that hold the glass elements together.

Authentic period examples feature hand-cut crystal drops with subtle hand-facet irregularities, hand-formed wire pins connecting the glass beads, and cast metal rings displaying natural surface patination or age-related oxidisation.

A compact crystal bag chandelier can be installed in hallways, cloakrooms, or dressing areas to provide focused illumination and period detail, contrasting effectively against painted ceilings or plaster moldings.

Ensure the electrical supply is disconnected before wiping individual crystal drops with a lint-free cloth dampened with warm water and isopropyl alcohol, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners on brass components.
