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.

Holophane lighting utilizes heavy glass shades moulded with optical prisms, a design patented in the late 19th century. These prisms break up the light beam, providing both direct downlighting and diffused illumination without harsh glare.

These shades are produced using thick pressed glass crafted with vertical and horizontal exterior ribs. The precise angle of each prism is engineered to reflect and refract light evenly across a interior space.

Authentic period pieces often feature moulded maker marks or patent numbers along the rim or brass collar gallery. The glass is typically heavy, dense, and displays sharp, clean prism ridges rather than smooth or soft pressed edges.

Suspended singly or in a series above kitchen islands, dining spaces, or long hallways, these pendant lights complement industrial, modern rustic, and period-style interiors due to their functional architectural profile.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth or soft brush to clear the fluted grooves. For deeper cleaning, remove the glass shade and wash in warm water with neutral liquid soap, ensuring it is entirely dry before reassembly.
