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.

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

Traditional French wall lights, often termed appliques, originated in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries to illuminate grand interiors. Typically featuring curved metal arms, scrolling backplates, and decorative crystal drops, they were engineered to reflect light effectively across a room.

These light fixtures are constructed using cast brass, bronze, or iron frames finished with silver gilding or gold leaf. The decorative pendeloques and rosettes are crafted from faceted cut glass or natural lead crystal attached with metal pin connectors.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-chased metal detailing, irregular hand-cut crystal facets, and original wiring or candle nozzles showing natural oxidisation. Older examples may also display historical conversion markings where candle fixtures were adapted for electricity.

Install crystal sconces flanking a hallway mirror, artwork, or fireplace mantel to create symmetry and ambient accent lighting. The reflective glass and silvered tones contrast against modern matte wall finishes, plasterwork, or dark backdrops.

Dust the metal frames and glass drops regularly using a dry microfibre cloth or soft brush. Clean individual crystal droplets with a mild isopropyl alcohol solution, taking care not to strain the wire connections or expose gilding to harsh detergents.
