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

Toleware refers to decorative objects crafted from painted, lacquered, or enamelled sheet metal, a technique developed in France during the eighteenth century. Wall lights in this style frequently feature botanical motifs, hand-painted floral blooms, and foliate branches supporting light sockets.

Traditional toleware lighting is constructed from hand-shaped sheet iron or tin, painted or lacquered with coloured coatings, and embellished with gilded or polychrome accents. Structural branches are forged to conceal electrical wiring or hold candle nozzles.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-cut or hand-hammered metal leaves and petals, hand-joined metalwork, and natural surface patination consistent with age. Hand-painted details often exhibit original brushstrokes and age-related paint wear.

These decorative fixtures serve as architectural wall accents when installed in pairs beside hallway mirrors, flanking artwork, or positioned on narrow accent walls to introduce organic floral shapes to neutral schemes.

Dust surfaces gently using a soft, dry microfibre cloth or artist brush. Avoid water, alcohol, or abrasive cleaning products, as moisture and solvents can detach delicate painted finishes or cause oxidisation to underlying sheet metal.
