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.

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.

This Victorian Aesthetic Movement pedestal by Gillow & Co. dates from around 1860. The piece is constructed from ebonised wood and burr walnut with gilding, finished in black and brown, and features inset burr walnut panels, gilt incised frieze detailing, and a moulded square top with a Greek key border on the base. Visible details include bracket feet, gilding along the edges and corners, and an ebonised finish. Stamped to verso with the maker's name Gillow & Co and serial numbers 7018, it measures 100 cm high, 41 cm wide, and 37 cm deep. Suitable for use in an empty corner of a home today, this pedestal provides a surface to display sculptures, vases, or decorative objects. The solid column form stands securely on low bracket feet, while the dark ebonisation and warm brown burr walnut panels contrast against the surrounding walls.

FAQs

Originating in the late 19th century, Aesthetic Movement pedestals were designed to display sculptures, urns, or fine art, emphasizing structural geometry, rich timber veneers, and decorative incised detailing influenced by Anglo-Japanese and classical design traditions.

High-grade hardwoods such as mahogany or walnut were treated with ebonised finishes to recreate the appearance of dark ebony, often highlighted with inset burr walnut panels, gilt incised detailing, and precision joinery.

Authentic period pieces display period-correct joinery, stamped maker marks on structural timber, natural age-related patination, and hand-gilded incised linework rather than modern stencil or transfer finishes.

Position the column in an empty corner, hallway, or fireplace alcove to display a marble bust, modern ceramic vessel, or indoor plant, creating visual height and contrast against contemporary backdrop colours.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a high-grade beeswax sparingly to the timber surfaces, avoiding liquid solvents, water, or abrasive cleaners that could damage the ebonised surface or delicate gilt ornamentation.
