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.

The Charles X style developed in France during the Restauration period of the 1820s. It combines traditional Neoclassical proportions with architectural Gothic Revival motifs, often featuring intricate metal casting and natural marble bases.

Pieces from this era typically feature patinated or gilded cast bronze bodies mounted on solid imported marble plinths, such as yellow Siena or red Griotte marble, secured with central iron threaded rods.

Authentic period bronzes exhibit heavy hand-chased surface details, sharp architectural moulding, and genuine chemical patination with natural oxidation. The marble bases should feature hand-cut underside construction and historical threaded metal fixings.

Place a symmetrical pair on a fireplace mantelpiece, console table, or dining room sideboard. The dark bronze and warm marble tones provide structural contrast against neutral walls or wood panelling.

Dust bronze surfaces regularly with a soft, dry lint-free cloth or camel-hair brush, avoiding metal polishes or liquid cleaners that remove patination. Clean Siena marble using a soft damp cloth with pH-neutral stone cleaner.
