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

French 19th-century figural candelabra were heavily influenced by Classical, Neo-Grec, and Empire revival movements. They typically feature finely cast patinated bronze human figures holding torch-style sconces, mounted on structured marble or onyx plinths with gilt-metal trims.

These pieces traditionally combine dark patinated bronze for the sculpted figures, gilt bronze or brass (ormolu) for the sconces and decorative collars, and natural polished stones such as onyx or marble for the base.

Authentic period pieces show precise lost-wax casting details, distinct weight from solid bronze construction, natural mineral veining in stone bases, and traditional threaded rod assembly hidden inside the structure.

Pairing classical candelabra on a fireplace mantelpiece, dining room sideboard, or entryway console table adds vertical interest, historical contrast, and formal symmetry to contemporary schemes.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft microfibre cloth. Avoid chemical polishes or water on patinated bronze as they can strip the surface finish, and keep acidic substances away from natural onyx bases.
