Archival Detail
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.

Edwardian brass chandeliers typically feature classical proportions, turned central baluster shafts, and sweeping scrolled arms inspired by earlier Dutch designs. Produced during the early 20th century, they reflect a design shift towards balanced, restrained forms following the heavier ornamentation of the Victorian era.

These lighting fixtures were predominantly constructed from solid cast brass, featuring turned central shafts, cast drip pans, and heavy scrolled arms. Components were assembled using threaded metal joining rods and were either lacquered or left unfinished to allow natural patination over time.

Authentic period pieces exhibit heavy solid brass construction rather than modern lightweight alloys, featuring original threaded joins, hand-finished castings, and signs of historic wiring paths. Stamped maker marks, registry numbers, or specific foundry stamps on the central body or ceiling loop also confirm origin.

Suspended above a dining table, in an entryway, or within a high-ceilinged living area, an antique brass chandelier serves as an anchor for modern decorative schemes. The warm metallic tones create contrast against muted paint shades and contemporary furnishings.

Dust the fixture regularly using a soft, dry microfibre cloth, avoiding chemical solvents or abrasive brass polishes that remove aged surface patina. Always have the internal wiring checked and updated by a certified electrician to meet current electrical safety standards.
