Archival Detail
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.

Regency Neoclassical torchere stands are tall decorative pedestals inspired by ancient Greek and Roman architecture, characterized by classical motifs such as fluting, leaf carving, turned columns, and gilded finishes.

These stands were typically carved from softwoods or hardwoods, coated with layers of gesso clay, and finished using water gilding or oil gilding with thin gold leaf sheets over a blackened or painted base.

Authentic pieces display genuine age-related wear, hand-carved joinery underneath, subtle shrinkage cracks along wood joints, and natural oxidisation or rubbing to the gilding exposing the underlying bole layer.

Torchere stands work well positioned symmetrically beside entryways or within fireplace alcoves, supporting sculptural ceramics, busts, greenery, or table lamps to add vertical interest.

Gilded surfaces should be dusted gently with a soft dry feather duster or dry camel-hair brush, avoiding water, liquid cleaners, or polishing chemicals that can dissolve the gesso and strip gold leaf.
