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.

Emerging in the late nineteenth century, Aesthetic Movement decorative arts emphasised art for arts sake, incorporating naturalistic flora, Japanese-inspired motifs, and refined combinations of mixed materials such as brass and ceramic.

These pieces typically feature cast brass sconces and wide drip trays joined by central threaded steel rods, securing decorated ceramic stems or baluster inserts tightly between the metal components.

Authentic examples display distinct features including floral or avian motifs, hand-chased brass fittings, ceramic inserts often featuring blue-and-white foliage patterns, and evidence of historical casting or finishing marks.

Position them as a symmetrical pair on a fireplace mantelpiece, sideboard top, or dining table centre to add warm metallic tones and period texture alongside modern or traditional furnishings.

Gently wipe the ceramic elements with a damp cloth, and clean the brass surfaces with a specialised metal polish or soft microfiber cloth, taking care not to allow metal cleaner to contact the glazed ceramic.
