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

French gilded bronze lighting from this era typically features cast metal elements finished with gilding or chemical patination. Designs often incorporate Neoclassical motifs such as acanthus leaves, scrollwork arms, and central urn-like stem structures.

Antique chandeliers were primarily constructed from cast bronze, brass, or iron, occasionally decorated with mercury gilding (ormolu) or dark patination. Secondary components included porcelain candle sleeves, glass prisms, and wrought hanging chains.

Authentic pieces feature heavy cast construction with evidence of hand-chasing on decorative details, threaded assembly components, and natural wear or oxidisation in unexposed areas. Modern reproductions often exhibit lightweight spun metal, uniform machine moulding, and contemporary electrical fittings.

An antique bronze chandelier serves as a focal point above a dining table, in a formal entryway, or within a living room. Pairing aged metalwork with minimalist furnishings creates a balanced contrast between historical structure and modern aesthetics.

Dust the fitting regularly using a dry microfibre cloth or soft feather duster. Avoid abrasive polishes or chemical solvents, as these can strip original patination and gilding; ensure electrical wiring is inspected by a qualified electrician.
