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

Originally designed in the 17th and 18th centuries to hold tall candles or candelabra, a torchere is a slender, elevated stand created to raise light sources above eye level to maximise room illumination.

Craftsmen predominantly utilised dense hardwoods such as walnut, mahogany, and rosewood, incorporating turned central columns, hand-carved detail, and tripod bases joined with traditional mortise and tenon construction.

Authentic Georgian pieces feature slight hand-lathed turning variations, natural patination in high-touch areas, hand-cut timber joints beneath the top, and original tripod leg structure without modern machine fasteners.

An antique torchere functions effectively in an unused corner or alcove to display trailing houseplants, sculptural ceramics, or accent lamps, adding vertical balance to a room.

Dust the timber regularly with a dry, lint-free cloth, keep the stand away from direct sunlight and radiator heat sources to prevent warping, and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year.
