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 originated in Florence, Italy, characterised by hand-carved wood or wrought iron frames decorated with gold leaf gilding, scrollwork, and polychrome painted finishes.

Traditional Florentine chandeliers are constructed using turned wood, wrought iron arms, hand-applied gesso, and gold leaf, often accented with distressed paint or tempera colour.

Authentic pieces feature hand-turned wooden components, layered gesso beneath gilding, visible iron joinery on arms, and natural signs of age such as craquelure on painted surfaces.

A Florentine chandelier can serve as a focal point suspended over a dining table or in a hallway, contrasting contemporary architectural lines with curvilinear scrollwork.

Dust the fixture gently using a soft microfibre cloth or dry feather duster, avoiding water or chemical cleaning agents that could damage delicate gold leaf and polychrome finishes.
