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

Empire style wall lights feature Neoclassical motifs such as swans, acanthus leaves, and central spheres, inspired by Greco-Roman imagery popularised during the French First Empire.

Craftsmen cast the bronze using sand or lost-wax methods, applying fire gilding (ormolu) to golden elements and chemical patination techniques to produce contrasting dark bronze surfaces.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-chased details, heavy cast metal weight, hand-threaded iron or brass fittings, and subtle age-related oxidisation on the gilded and patinated surfaces.

Position these sconces flanking an entryway mirror, above a side table, or on a textured feature wall to create a focal point contrasting historic metalwork with clean contemporary lines.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft microfibre cloth and avoid water, liquid solvents, or abrasive metal polishes, which can strip historical patinas and delicate gilt finishes.
