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.

FAQs

Figurative cherubs or putti became prominent in French lighting during the Louis XV and Rococo periods, where playful figurative sculpture was combined with scrolling acanthus leaves, lyre shapes, and asymmetric floral forms in cast bronze and brass.

These fixtures were typically constructed from cast bronze or brass, which was then hand-chased to refine details before being gilded using mercury fire-gilding (ormolu) or lacquer techniques, paired with ceramic or metal candle sleeves.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-chased surface details, distinct casting seams, natural oxidisation in deeper recesses, and signs of historical adaptation from original candle fittings to early electrical wiring.

Suspend the pair symmetrically over a long dining table, place them above a kitchen island, or hang them in a formal hallway to introduce classical French ornamentation into modern or transitional spaces.

Dust regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth or feather duster; avoid water, abrasive cloths, or liquid chemical polishes, as these can strip original gilding and historic surface patination.
