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.

This early 20th century French Chateau style chandelier is constructed from gilt brass, cut crystal, and glass. The gold toned fixture suspends twelve lights upon scrolled brass arms set with glass bobeches and white candle sleeves. A bulbous leaf tapering central column with a leaf canopy supports the structure, while the whole piece is profusely decorated with faceted crystal droplets and pendants alongside an original chain and ceiling rose. The leaves on the arms, the teardrop shape of the hanging glass pendants, and the twisted metal design of the brass framework are all clearly visible. Measuring 66 cm high, 74 cm wide, and 74 cm deep excluding the chain and rose, the lighting piece is fully rewired and PAT tested for modern use. It provides an opulent illumination source suitable for a formal dining room, living area, or grand hallway in a period home.

FAQs

French gilded crystal chandeliers are multi-armed ceiling light fixtures characterised by ornate cast frames finished in gold leaf or gilt brass, adorned with faceted glass or crystal droplets that reflect and disperse light.

These fixtures typically feature frames constructed from cast brass, bronze, or spelter with a gilded finish, combined with lead crystal or cut glass pendants, glass bobeches, and ceramic or faux-wax candle sleeves.

Authentic pieces often display hand-cast bronze or brass frames with chased detailing, hand-cut glass droplets attached with wire pin connectors, and natural age-related oxidisation to the gilded surface.

A gilded crystal chandelier can serve as a focal point when suspended above a dining table or in an entrance hall, creating contrast against minimalist contemporary plasterwork and neutral colour palettes.

Maintain the fixture by dusting regularly with a soft microfibre cloth, gently wiping individual crystal droplets with a diluted isopropyl alcohol solution, and avoiding harsh chemical polishers on the gilded frame.
