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 gilt bronze wall lights, often designed in the Louis XV or Rococo style, are decorative wall-mounted lighting fixtures characterised by asymmetrical scrollwork, foliage motifs, and cast bronze construction coated in gold leaf or mercury gilding.

These fixtures were cast using bronze via the lost-wax or sand-casting method, after which skilled craftsmen chased the metal by hand to add fine texture before applying fire-gilding or mercury gilding to create a durable metallic sheen.

Authentic antique pieces display hand-chased surface details, heavy cast bronze construction, natural age-related oxidisation in deeper recesses, and historical drill holes or original mounting hardware on the rear side.

Position a pair of wall sconces flanking a central feature such as an overmantel mirror, artwork, or entryway console table to provide balanced accent lighting and structural symmetry.

Remove dust using a soft dry brush or microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners, polish, or water which can damage original gilding and accelerate tarnishing.
