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

Ormolu refers to the technique of applying a high-karat gold-mercury amalgam to bronze or brass objects, creating a durable gilded finish. Prominent from the eighteenth through the nineteenth centuries, particularly in France, it was widely used for clock cases, furniture mounts, and candelabra.

Authentic pieces are typically cast in bronze or brass before receiving a fire-gilded gold coating. Some ornate examples incorporate inset semi-precious stones, agate, glass cabochons, or porcelain plaques into the metal base.

Authentic pieces exhibit heavy cast weight, detailed chasing work, and natural age-related patination or mild oxidisation in recessed areas. Hand-fitted threaded components and hand-chased surface details distinguish period items from modern mass-produced cast reproductions.

Place them on a marble mantelpiece, a dark wood sideboard, or a console table to serve as classical accent pieces. Pairing metallic gilt finishes with contemporary minimalist backdrops creates visual contrast in eclectic or traditional interiors.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft-bristled brush or microfibre cloth to remove accumulated dirt. Avoid abrasive polishes, chemical cleaners, or immersion in water, as these processes strip away delicate historic gilding and natural patina.
