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

Originating in 18th-century France, these lighting fixtures feature cast bronze frames gilded with gold leaf or mercury amalgams, characterised by asymmetric scrollwork, acanthus leaf motifs, and suspended crystal drops.

Authentic French chandeliers were crafted using cast bronze or brass frames, coated in mercury gilding (ormolu), and adorned with hand-cut glass or lead crystal prisms and teardrops.

Authentic pieces feature sharp cast detail in the metalwork, heavy hand-cut crystal drops with wire pins, evidence of historic casting seams or hand-chased ornamentation, and natural patination on the gilded surfaces.

A matching pair can be installed symmetrically above a long dining table, positioned within a high-ceiling hallway, or used to anchor dual sitting areas in a formal drawing room.

Dust the frame and crystal drops using a soft, dry microfibre cloth; clean individual crystal prisms gently using a damp cloth diluted with a mild soapy solution, taking care not to disturb the gilt bronze finish.
