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

Florentine chandeliers originate from Florence, Italy, and are recognised for their intricate craftsmanship, featuring carved wooden or wrought metal frames finished with hand-applied gold leaf gilding, sweeping scrollwork branches, and decorative glass droplets.

Historically, these light fixtures were constructed using a combination of carved lightweight wood or wrought iron for the core structure, coated in gesso and gold leaf gilding, complemented by turned wooden candle cups and faceted glass or crystal pendants.

Authentic period examples exhibit signs of hand-carving in the wooden framework, multi-layered gesso base coats beneath natural gilding wear, oxidisation on metal fittings, hand-cut crystal drops, and original candle sleeves.

A Florentine light fixture serves as a focal point when positioned above a dining table, suspended in a hallway, or placed in a modern living space where the warm gold leaf tones contrast against neutral wall palettes.

Dust the structure regularly using a soft feather duster or dry microfiber cloth. Avoid water and liquid cleaning agents on water-gilded surfaces, and clean the removable glass crystal drops separately using a mild distilled water solution.
