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 nineteenth-century French Louis XVI chandelier consists of an ormolu and brass frame in a gold colourway with white frosted glass elements. The construction incorporates three opaque cut glass oval panels, three opaque ruffled white glass flower shades, ormolu scroll arms, a ribbon detail at the top suspension ring, a ceiling canopy, and a small finial at the base. Sympathetically restored and rewired, the light fitting holds six bulbs. Measuring 90 cm high by 57 cm wide, this chandelier provides practical illumination for principal reception rooms, grand hallways, or dining spaces within a period home. The substantial gilt bronze and glass structure creates an ornate focal point when suspended from a ceiling.

FAQs

An ormolu chandelier features gilded bronze or brass mounts crafted through a gilding technique prominent in France from the eighteenth century onward.

These light fixtures usually combine heavy cast bronze or brass, gilded with gold finishes, alongside frosted, moulded, or hand-cut glass components.

Authentic pieces demonstrate detailed hand-chasing on the metalwork, substantial casting weight, original mounting threads, and natural gentle wear to the gilded coating.

Suspending a detailed gilt chandelier above a contemporary dining table or in an entryway provides contrast against clean architectural lines and neutral colour palettes.

Dust metal surfaces using a soft dry brush or microfibre cloth, keeping free from harsh abrasive polishes or chemical cleansers that damage thin gilding layers.
