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

Baroque style curtain tiebacks feature elaborate ornamentation, such as scrolling acanthus leaves, shell motifs, and dynamic sweeping curves derived from 17th and 18th-century European metalwork.

Traditional French holdbacks were primarily cast in solid brass or bronze using sand-casting or lost-wax techniques before being hand-chased and polished or gilded.

Authentic antique brass tiebacks often display evidence of hand-chasing, natural oxidation within recessed areas, historical mounting threads, and subtle variations between cast pairs.

These hardware fittings can be paired with plain linen or velvet drapery to introduce textural contrast and a tailored metallic accent to contemporary window treatments.

Dust regularly using a soft dry cloth and avoid abrasive chemical polishes that strip original patination; a thin layer of microcrystalline wax can be applied to protect against oxidation.
