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

Louis XVI style wall sconces typically feature Neoclassical motifs such as ribbon bows, tassels, foliate scrolls, and symmetrical twin candle branches inspired by Greco-Roman antiquity.

These fixtures were cast in bronze or brass using the lost-wax or sand-casting method, then gilded using mercury-gilding (ormolu) or electroplating to create a durable golden finish.

Authentic pieces display precise hand-chased surface details, heavy cast metal construction, original thread pitch on hand-cut screws, and natural oxidisation on unexposed rear surfaces.

Flank a hallway mirror, artwork, or mantelpiece with the sconces to add architectural symmetry and warm ambient lighting to contemporary spaces.

Dust regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth or soft bristle brush, avoiding abrasive polishes, chemical cleaners, or water, which can damage the delicate gilding layer.
