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

A French gilded bronze wall sconce, also known as a wall applique, is a decorative wall-mounted lighting fixture cast from bronze and finished with gilding or gold leaf, widely popular during the French Rococo and Neoclassical periods.

These sconces were traditionally crafted using lost-wax or sand casting methods, after which skilled metalworkers hand-chased the detailed surfaces before applying a fire-gilt or lacquer-gilt finish.

Authentic pieces generally display heavy cast construction, hand-chased foliate or scrolling work, evidence of historical casting seams, and natural surface oxidisation on the un-gilded reverse side.

Gilded sconces can be mounted in symmetrical pairs flanking a doorway, positioned on either side of a large wall mirror, or used as accent lighting in a hallway to contrast with contemporary architectural lines.

Maintain gilded bronze by dusting regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth or soft bristle brush, avoiding chemical cleaners, liquids, or abrasive polish that can remove the fragile gilt layer.
