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.
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.

Victorian glass lustres are decorative mantelpiece ornaments, often produced in pairs during the nineteenth century, featuring a glass vessel adorned with suspended crystal prisms designed to refract ambient light.

These items were typically hand-blown using opaque, coloured, or swirled glass, finished with hand-painted gilt details and attached cut-crystal prisms via individual metal wire connectors.

Authentic examples frequently exhibit hand-finished details such as pontil marks on the base, minor irregularities in hand-cut glass prisms, and age-related surface wear to the gilt motifs.

Position a pair symmetrically on a fireplace mantelpiece, console table, or sideboard to establish visual balance and capture natural light through the hanging prisms.

Dust gently using a dry microfibre cloth, avoid soaking gilded surfaces in water, and clean crystal drops individually with a damp cloth to protect original wire fittings.
