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 pair of nineteenth-century Japanese table lamps comprises ceramic vases mounted on turned ebonized bases with brass hardware and cream pleated fabric shades. Each baluster form vase displays a vibrant blue glaze with a flared rim and applied dragon relief decoration winding around the neck. The ceramic bodies exhibit slight professional restoration to one side, while the shades show neat pleating in a neutral cream tone. Measuring 45 cm high by 22 cm wide and 22 cm deep, these lamps suit a traditional English country house interior. Position this matching pair upon a large sideboard top, console table, or chest of drawers to introduce ambient illumination and rich blue colour to a living room, hallway, or dining space. The classic baluster silhouettes and neutral pleated shades coordinate easily with various schemes while maintaining period character through the carved relief motifs and dark wooden stands.

FAQs

In the 19th century, particularly during the Meiji period, Japanese ceramicists produced porcelain and stoneware featuring vibrant glazes and applied relief motifs. Many of these ceramic vessels were subsequently fitted as electrical table lamps for international interiors.

These lighting pieces feature fired porcelain or ceramic bases coated in vitreous glazes, often mounted on wooden or metal bases, and finished with fabric shades made from pleated cotton or silk.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-formed ceramic details, slight natural asymmetries, and detailed relief work along the body, alongside historical conversion hardware and marks consistent with 19th-century manufacturing techniques.

Positioning the pair symmetrically on a sideboard, console table, or flanking a bed creates visual balance. The intense blue glaze provides contrast when set against neutral walls, natural timber, or polished brass fittings.

Maintain the ceramic surface by dusting regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and avoiding harsh chemical cleansers. Electrical components should be periodically inspected by a certified electrician to ensure safety.
