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.
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.
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.

A plafonnier is a flush-fit or shallow-suspended ceiling light bowl that emerged in popularity during the late 19th and early 20th centuries to diffuse light evenly across a room.

These fixtures typically feature frosted, opaline, or etched glass bowls hand-decorated with enamel paint, suspended by brass or bronze link chains.

Authentic pieces display signs of hand-painted brushwork rather than modern transfer prints, aged patina on brass suspension fittings, and minor wear around the hanging holes.

Positioning the shade in hallways, dressing rooms, or dining spaces introduces classical architectural detail, working effectively alongside period features or neutral minimalist decor.

Dust gently with a dry microfibre cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners or immersing painted areas in water, as moisture can compromise delicate cold-painted or enamel details.
