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 Empire style lighting typically draws inspiration from classical antiquity, featuring symmetrical proportions, cast bronze or ormolu mounts, and motifs such as swans, laurels, and urns.

These fixtures were traditionally crafted using cast bronze, fire-gilded ormolu, and hand-cut crystal drops, assembled with mechanical fixings rather than modern welds.

Authentic pieces usually display age-related patination, hand-chased metal detailing, pin or wire fixings for crystals, and components constructed from heavy cast bronze rather than pressed steel.

Pairing a highly detailed traditional fixture with minimalist walls and clean architectural lines creates a deliberate contrast that highlights the craftsmanship of the piece without overwhelming the space.

Gilded surfaces should be dusted gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth to avoid abrasion, while crystals can be cleaned in situ using a mild solution of distilled water and isopropyl alcohol.
