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

Italian polychrome lighting features hand-carved timber decorated with multiple painted colours and leaf gilding, a tradition that gained prominence during the 17th and 18th centuries across regions like Tuscany and Venice.

Craftsmen carved lightweight timber into ornate forms, applied a gesso primer surface, and hand-painted pigments over gold leaf before attaching metal scrollwork arms to hold candles.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit hand-carved timber marks, craquelure paint surfaces, layered gesso under paint loss, and historical iron or timber mounting mechanisms.

Mount the sconce as a architectural accent on a neutral plastered wall above a sideboard or console table to create visual contrast between historical craftsmanship and minimalist decor.

Dust gently using a soft, dry camel-hair brush, avoiding damp cloths, solvents, or commercial waxes that can erode fragile paint layers and delicate gilding.
