Archival Detail
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.
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.
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.

French hall lanterns from the 18th and 19th centuries typically display Neo-Classical or Louis XVI influences, characterised by architectural symmetry, cylindrical glass enclosures, and decorative gilt-brass mounts such as swags, ribbons, and finials.

These fixtures were constructed using cast brass or bronze, which was frequently mercury-gilded or lacquered, alongside curved panels of clear blown glass and a central rod carrying internal lighting arms.

Authentic period lanterns feature hand-chased brass castings, original hand-cut curved glass, heavy structural weight, and signs of age such as natural oxidisation in protected crevices rather than uniform modern electroplating.

Suspended in an entryway, stairwell, or hallway, a gilt brass lantern provides architectural focal interest and warmth, pairing well with contemporary minimalist plasterwork or traditional panelling.

Clean the glass panels using a lint-free cloth and mild glass cleaner, while dusting the gilded brass frame gently with a soft dry brush, avoiding abrasive chemical polishes that strip historical gilding.
