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

Art Nouveau library lamps typically feature fluid, organic curves, gooseneck stems, and functional adjustable shades designed to provide direct task lighting for reading and writing during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

These lighting fixtures were predominantly crafted from solid brass or bronze, featuring cast metal bases for stability, mechanical joint swivels, and shaped metal or glass shades.

Authentic period examples demonstrate natural surface oxidisation, age-appropriate wear around adjustment mechanisms, original thread patterns on turn keys, and weighted bases.

Position the lamp on a modern home office desk, a dark timber sideboard, or a library shelf to serve as a functional accent light that introduces historical contrast.

Dust the metal surface regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and avoid harsh chemical polishes that remove aged patina. Ensure electrical wiring is inspected by a qualified electrician prior to use.
