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

Gilded surfaces should be dusted regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Chemical polishes and abrasive cleaners must be avoided to prevent stripping the delicate gold leaf or patinated finish from the metal.

These fixtures work effectively when mounted in pairs flanking a mirror, framing an entryway doorway, or providing accent illumination within a hallway or living space to add architectural depth.

Authentication involves examining the joinery of the metal frame, the weight of the brass components, the presence of hand-applied gilding or patination, and the manufacture method of the curved glass panels.

Authentic period pieces are typically constructed using cast or pressed brass frames, gilded metal accents, and curved or convex glass panels designed to enclose the internal candle holders or electrical fittings.

French half lanterns originate from traditional street and interior corridor lighting designs adapted for domestic use, frequently featuring semicircular glass profiles to direct illumination flat against a wall surface.
