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.

French antique crystal chandeliers are characterised by ornate metal armaturesoften cast in bronze or brass with gilt or silvered finishesadorned with faceted glass or lead crystal droplets, swags, and central balusters designed to refract light across a room.

Traditional construction typically incorporates a cast bronze or brass frame with silver plating, gilding, or patination, combined with hand-cut crystal or glass prisms, glass column covers, and faux-candle light sockets.

Authentic examples often show original hand-cut crystal drops with slight irregularities, hand-chased metalwork detailing on the arms, evidence of historical wiring conversions, and natural oxidisation or tarnish on silvered and gilded surfaces.

Suspend the fixture above a contemporary dining table or within an entryway to create a striking focal point that balances historical classical elegance with clean, modern architectural lines.

Preserve the fixture by dusting it regularly with a soft microfibre cloth and carefully wiping individual crystal drops using a diluted isopropyl alcohol solution, avoiding harsh abrasive cleaners that could strip original silver gilding.
