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

These lamps feature vase-shaped bases crafted using enamel techniques such as cloisonne or canton enamel, popularised in East Asia and widely imported to European markets during the 19th century. Many were originally manufactured as decorative vases or oil lamps before being converted for modern electrical use.

These lighting fixtures feature metal bodies coated in colourful vitreous enamel, supported by cast brass or bronze bases and collars. The accompanying shades are commonly fabricated from pleated silk or linen textiles.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-applied enamelling with slight surface irregularities, fine gilt wirework outlining the patterns, and heavy cast brass mounts showing genuine age-related patination or oxidisation.

Positioning a symmetrical pair on a sideboard, console, or bedside tables adds decorative balance and visual interest to neutral living rooms, bedrooms, or hallways.

Dust the enamel and metalwork gently with a dry, lint-free microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemical polishes or water that could damage the enamel surface or underlying metal. Ensure electrical wiring is inspected by a qualified professional.
