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.

This early 20th-century French Rococo chandelier stands as a cage form light fixture, made from gilded bronze and suspended on an ornate chain. The surface displays a super original golden patination with well cast acanthus leaf details on the scrolling arms, matching bobeche drip pans, and bulbous candelabra sockets, while faceted cut crystal teardrop pendants hang below and within the interior cage. It measures 61 cm high, 63 cm wide, and 63 cm deep, excluding the chain and rose, and comes equipped with six lights, original hardware, and newly wired PAT-tested fittings. Ideal for placement in a traditional dining room, living room, or hallway, this piece brings classic French chateau style to interior spaces today.

FAQs

French gilt bronze chandeliers typically feature intricate scrollwork, leaf motifs, and cast metal components finished with gold gilding or ormolu, often accented with cut glass or crystal drops.

Historically, craftsmen used mercury-gilded bronze, ormolu, cast brass, and lead crystal or cut glass drops attached via wire pins to decorative curved metal arms.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-chased metal details, natural oxidisation in low-relief areas, heavy cast bronze weight, and hand-cut glass or crystal prisms attached with aged wire.

Suspending a classical gilt bronze chandelier above a minimalist dining table or within a tall entrance hall creates contrast between historical detailing and clean architectural lines.

Dust regularly with a soft microfibre cloth and clean individual glass drops using a mild solution of isopropyl alcohol and distilled water, taking care to avoid harsh chemicals on gilded metal surfaces.
