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.

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 as tall stands designed to hold candles or oil lamps, torcheres evolved during the nineteenth century into decorative indoor pedestals used to display lamps, floral arrangements, or sculptures.

These stands were predominantly crafted from dense hardwoods such as oak, walnut, or mahogany, often features hand-carved figurative details and finished with dark stains or ebonised polish.

Look for signs of hand-tool marks within intricate carvings, natural movement or shrinkage in timber joints, authentic age-related wear to the base, and period-correct joinery underneath the tabletop.

Position the piece in a hallway, alcove, or corner to elevate a trailing houseplant, a modern ceramic vessel, or a figurative sculpture, creating vertical interest in the room.

Dust regularly using a soft, dry cloth and apply a natural beeswax paste polish occasionally, ensuring dust does not accumulate in carved crevices and keeping the timber away from direct heat sources.
