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

Japanese Meiji period bronze vase lamps are decorative lighting fixtures created by adapting late 19th-century cast bronze vessels, originally made for display or export, into electrical table lamps.

These lamps are constructed from cast bronze, often featuring high-relief chasing, patinated dark finishes, and cold-worked gilt bronze or brass fittings for electrical components and decorative bases.

Authentic pieces feature heavy cast construction, intricate hand-carved relief work depicting flora or mythical creatures, original patination, and often cast maker marks or seals near the base.

Positioning a pair of tall bronze lamps on a hallway console or sideboard adds symmetry, visual weight, and historical texture, pairing well with neutral tones or dark wooden furniture.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft lint-free cloth and avoid liquid polishes or chemical cleaners, which can strip the original patination and oxidisation layers.
