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.

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

During the late Victorian and Edwardian periods around 1900, copper became a favoured material for porch and vestibule lanterns due to its weather resistance and warm aesthetic tone. These fixtures were designed to transition between exterior entries and interior hallways, often featuring decorative hand-worked metalwork and glass panes.

Period hall and porch lanterns were primarily constructed using sheet copper, brass, or wrought iron, paired with clear or textured glass panels. Construction involved hand-soldering, riveting, and pierced metalwork to create decorative cresting and galleries.

Authentic period copper lanterns display signs of hand construction, such as slight irregularities in the metalwork, lap-joint soldering, and naturally developed oxidisation or patina. Original fittings often show historic wear, with non-uniform thickness in the hand-cut glass or frame elements.

A large copper lantern works effectively as a focal illumination point in a double-height hallway, an entrance vestibule, or suspended above a kitchen island. The warm metal tones contrast against neutral paint schemes, exposed brickwork, or natural timber architectural features.

Clean the metal surfaces using a dry, soft microfibre cloth to remove dust without stripping the natural aged patina. Avoid harsh chemical polishes or abrasive cleaners, and clean the glass panes separately with a mild glass cleaner applied to a cloth rather than sprayed directly onto the metal frame.
