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 Neoclassical wall lights feature classical symmetry, floral or foliate motifs such as acanthus leaves, and cast metal construction finished in gilt or ormolu.

Gilt bronze sconces were crafted from cast bronze or brass, which was gilded using mercurial fire-gilding or electroplating to achieve a durable golden finish.

Original pieces display heavy cast bronze construction, hand-chased decorative details, hand-tooling marks on the reverse, and natural oxidisation within the recessed carved areas.

Positioning gilt wall sconces in entryways, fireplace alcoves, or flanking mirrors provides architectural structure and warm ambient lighting that contrasts well with modern decor.

Dust the metalwork regularly with a dry, soft microfibre cloth and avoid harsh chemical polishes or liquid cleaners, which can strip or scratch the delicate gilded surface.
