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.

A tent and bag chandelier features an upper section where strung crystal beads taper upwards like a tent, coupled with a lower concentric ring from which loops of crystal beads form a bag-like basket to diffuse light.

Traditional English chandeliers from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries utilise lead crystal or heavy cut glass strung on metal wire frames, often finished with brass or silvered elements.

Authentic pieces display hand-cut glass droplets with subtle hand-faceted irregularities, heavy lead content that produces prismatic refraction, and hand-twisted metal pin connections holding the strands together.

Positioning a classic chandelier above a minimalist dining table or within a high-ceilinged entrance hall creates architectural contrast, allowing the crystal reflections to act as a focal point.

Dust strands regularly using a soft feather duster, and periodically clean individual glass crystals with a solution of warm water and isopropyl alcohol using a lint-free microfibre cloth.
