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.

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.
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.

Neoclassical column candlesticks replicate classical architectural pillars, incorporating acanthus leaf capitals, fluted or decorated shafts, and stepped square bases inspired by ancient Greek and Roman design.

Candlesticks from this period were predominantly manufactured from solid sterling silver or electroplated nickel silver (EPNS), often filled with pitch, rosin, or lead at the base to provide weight and stability.

Authentic pieces feature manufacturer makers marks or electroplate stamps on the rim or base, crisp cast detailing on the capitals, and characteristic signs of age such as gentle wear to high points revealing underlying base metal.

A pair of column candlesticks creates formal symmetry when positioned at the centre of a dining table or placed at opposing ends of a fireplace mantelpiece alongside contemporary artwork or modern ceramics.

Clean silver plate using a soft cotton cloth and specialized silver polish, avoiding abrasive cleaners. Remove residual candle wax by submerging the affected area in warm water until the wax softens, avoiding hot water contact with weighted bases.
