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 hanging lanterns evolved during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, initially developed for enclosed corridors, vestibules, and stairwells to protect flame light sources from drafts while maximizing light distribution through glass paneling.

Traditional hall lanterns are typically constructed using frames of rolled steel, wrought iron, or cast brass, combined with clear flat or curved glass panes and central internal candle-stem light fittings.

Authentic period examples feature hand-fitted glass panels retained by brass tabs or pins, manual solder joints along the metallic seams, and age-consistent oxidisation on the metal surfaces.

A pair of lanterns can be suspended side-by-side above a kitchen island or arranged in sequence along a central hallway to create symmetrical visual lines and balanced illumination.

Clean glass panes using a non-abrasive microfibre cloth and specialized glass cleaner, while metal frames should be wiped down with a dry cloth, avoiding harsh chemical polishes that can strip natural patina or protective lacquers.
