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

Figural candlesticks from the late nineteenth century incorporate sculpted human, mythological, or allegorical figures into the stem structure, popularised during the Historicism and Art Nouveau movements across Europe.

These decorative objects were typically cast in base metal alloys, such as Britannia metal or nickel silver, before undergoing electroplating to coat the detailed surface in a thin layer of pure silver.

Authentic WMF pieces usually feature stamped makers marks, such as the ostrich emblem or letter acronyms, alongside numerical codes denoting the plating weight and metal composition on the base.

Position them as decorative accents on a dining table centrepiece, mantelpiece, or sideboard top alongside modern ceramics or artwork to create visual contrast between historic detail and contemporary design.

Clean gently with a soft microfibre cloth and a specialised silver polish formulated for electroplated wares, avoiding aggressive abrasives or chemical dips that could strip the silver layer.
