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

Traditional English brass wall sconces feature decorative cast brass backplates with twin or single extending arms designed to hold candles or electric bulbs. Common period design elements include urn finials, classical drapery, and scrolled branches inspired by Georgian and Regency architecture.

Historic wall sconces were cast in solid brass using sand or lost-wax casting methods. Components such as backplates, branches, and candle pans were hand-chased and assembled with threaded steel pins or brazing techniques before being polished or lacquered.

Authentic period brass lighting displays heavy casting weight, original mounting thread patterns, and subtle surface inconsistencies from manual hand-finishing. Inspection of the reverse side often reveals casting marks, rough sand-cast textures, or historical conversion holes from gas or candle power to electricity.

Twin-arm brass sconces provide warm accent illumination when installed in pairs framing a central mantlepiece, mirror, or hallway artwork. Their warm metal tones complement both dark painted feature walls and traditional wood paneling.

Maintain brass lighting fixtures by dusting regularly with a dry microfibre cloth. Avoid abrasive metal polishes or chemical cleaners on lacquered or patinated brass surfaces to preserve the natural metal finish.
