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.

Glass lustres are decorative 19th-century vessels or candleholders lined with hanging cut-glass crystal prisms designed to refract and scatter light across a room.

Ruby glass was produced by introducing gold chloride into molten glass to achieve a deep red hue, frequently accented with hand-painted enamel patterns, gold leaf gilding, and suspended lead crystal prisms.

Authentic period examples generally display hand-blown features such as smoothed pontil scars, minor hand-crafted variations in glass thickness, individual hand-cut crystal drops, and hand-applied enamel decoration.

These decorative glass statement pieces are suited for symmetrical placement on a fireplace mantelpiece, console, or sideboard top, adding rich colour and historical depth to modern interiors.

Dust the glass bodies gently using a soft, dry microfibre cloth to protect enamel and gilt detailing, while wiping individual crystal drops separately with lukewarm soapy water.
