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.

These French chateau style chandeliers date from 1930. The pair comprises twelve-light double-tiered fixtures constructed from gilt brass frames, glass, and crystal, exhibiting a bright gold colour. Each chandelier displays scrolling arms with candle drip sleeves and tiers of lights adorned with faceted crystal droplets. The photograph shows matching chains suspending each fixture from the ceiling, intricate scrolling metalwork along the cage frames, and vertical candle-style bulb holders with fluted details. The items measure 79 cm high, 75 cm wide, and 75 cm deep. In a contemporary home, these fixtures provide overhead illumination when suspended in principal reception rooms, grand dining areas, or high-ceilinged entryways. The multi-bulb layout projects generous light across a space while the crystal elements reflect ambient illumination. The classic metal finish coordinates easily with traditional and transitional interior schemes, creating a focal point above a dining table, seating group, or hallway.

FAQs

French crystal chandeliers typically feature cast brass or bronze frames adorned with hand-cut glass or lead crystal droplets, pendeloques, and rosettes arranged across sweeping tiers.

These lighting fixtures are constructed using gilt bronze or brass for the structural frame, combined with faceted glass or crystal drops suspended from wire pins.

Authentic examples often exhibit hand-chased metal detailing, cast brass components with subtle hand-finished asymmetry, and glass droplets featuring minor cut irregularities or air bubbles.

Positioning a pair over a long dining table or within an entrance hall creates balance and visual symmetry against neutral contemporary decor.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, and clean individual crystal drops using a mild solution of isopropyl alcohol and water applied with a soft cloth while avoiding harsh chemicals on gilt metal.
