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.

French gilded bronze chandeliers from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries feature cast metal frameworks finished in gilt or ormolu, embellished with elaborate scrolling arms and glass or crystal droplets. The design typically incorporates multiple tier levels and candle holders arranged to maximise light reflection.

These fixtures were constructed using heavy cast bronze or brass frames finished with gold gilding or fire-gilding techniques. The decorative drops and faceted pendants were made from lead crystal or cut glass, attached to the frame using wire pins.

Authentic period pieces display weight in the bronze casting, hand-chased surface detailing, and signs of natural oxidisation in un-gilded areas. Hand-cut glass droplets often contain subtle impurities or variation in cut geometry, unlike modern machine-moulded crystal.

Position the chandelier above a dining table, within an entrance hall, or over a central living area to serve as a focal point. Combining period lighting with minimalist architectural features creates a balanced contrast between historic craftsmanship and modern design.

Dust the bronze metalwork regularly using a dry, soft microfibre cloth without harsh liquid cleaners, which can strip gilding. Glass and crystal pendants can be wiped individually using a lint-free cloth dampened with distilled water and mild spirit.
