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.
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.
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.

Nineteenth-century French crystal chandeliers are characterised by cast bronze or brass frames decorated with glass or crystal drops, rosettes, and pendants. Influenced by Rococo and Louis XV styles, they feature multiple curved light branches arranged symmetrically around a central metal and glass stem.

These lighting fixtures combine cast bronze or brass armatures with hand-cut crystal or glass prisms, drops, and central column elements. Originally designed for candles, many examples were later converted to electricity while retaining decorative candle sleeves.

Authentic 19th-century pieces feature cast metal frames with visible hand-chased details, hand-cut crystal drops with individual wire pin connectors, and natural patination on the metal surface rather than uniform modern electroplating.

A pair of antique French chandeliers can be hung symmetrically over a long dining table, kitchen island, or within a high-ceilinged hallway. Their metallic frames and light-refracting crystal contrast with clean-lined modern architectural features.

Clean crystal drops individually using a soft cloth dampened with isopropyl alcohol and distilled water. Avoid harsh liquid cleaners on the bronze frame to preserve the aged surface patina, and ensure electrical wiring is inspected by a qualified professional.
