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

Inspired by the architectural lighting created for French palaces during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, these lanterns feature cast gilt bronze or brass mounts paired with clear or cut glass shades, often decorated with classical motifs like acanthus leaves and pinecone finials.

Authentic French hall lanterns typically utilise cast bronze or brass, which is finished with gilding, combined with hand-blown or heavy moulded glass elements to encase the light source.

Original gilt bronze fixtures exhibit detailed hand-chasing, substantial weight from cast bronze, and natural surface wear or subtle oxidisation in untouched recessed areas rather than a uniform modern paint coating.

A gilt bronze lantern serves as a focal point when suspended in a high-ceilinged entrance hall, above a dining table, or within a stairwell to contrast classical metalwork against contemporary architectural lines.

Dust metal and glass regularly with a soft microfibre cloth, and clean glass sections using a mild soapy water solution on a dampened cloth while avoiding harsh chemical cleaners that could strip the delicate gilding.
