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

Nineteenth-century Sevres style lighting incorporates hand-painted porcelain plaques set within gilded bronze ormolu mounts. Distinctive features include vibrant ground colours such as bleu celeste, floral vignettes, classical figurative scenes, and Neoclassical ribbon and scroll motifs.

Antique French wall candelabras typically combine painted soft or hard-paste porcelain with heavy cast gilt bronze, known as ormolu. The metal mounts were chased by hand to achieve detailed surface texture before gilding.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-painted enamel decoration with individual brushstrokes, unlike modern transfer prints. Examination of the reverse usually reveals cast metal support structures, age-appropriate patination, and painter or factory marks on the porcelain.

Mounting sconces symmetrically on either side of a mantelpiece, mirror, or hallway sideboard creates visual structure. The contrast between bright gilded metal, blue porcelain, and matte painted walls offers a classic accent in contemporary settings.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft microfibre cloth or a soft bristle brush. Avoid using water, liquid detergents, or chemical polishes, as moisture can induce oxidisation on metal fittings and damage original gilding.
