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

French hexagonal lanterns are defined by a six-sided geometric frame crafted from metal, containing glass panels designed to shield light sources while maximizing illumination in entryways and hallways.

Historically, these fixtures were constructed using wrought iron, sheet steel, or brass frames combined with clear glass panes and interior brass fittings for housing candles or early electrical components.

Authentic period examples often feature hand-riveted joints, cast brass accents, minor variations in glass thickness, and natural surface patination or subtle oxidisation along metal joins.

A pair of matching hanging lanterns can be installed symmetrically above a long kitchen island, along a central entrance hallway, or suspended above a dining space to establish balance and focal height.

Glass panels should be cleaned with a lint-free cloth and mild glass cleaner, while the steel and brass frames require dusting with a dry microfiber cloth to preserve existing metal patination without abrasive chemicals.
