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.

Lighting from this era frequently integrated natural carved stone, such as onyx and alabaster, sculpted into architectural forms like columns and obelisks. These bases were mounted with brass or bronze hardware, reflecting the transition from Neoclassical revival to Art Deco design principles.

These lamps were constructed using blocks of natural onyx marble, turned or carved by hand, and secured with cast brass or bronze internal rods, collars, and stepped bases. The natural mineral layers of the stone create varied translucent patterns across the surface.

Authentic period pieces display natural variations and cold surface temperatures characteristic of real stone, along with original brass fittings showing natural oxidisation. Historical construction often features threaded central metal rods holding the carved stone sections together above a weighted base.

Position the lamp on a dark wood console table, desk, or sideboard to establish contrast against the cream stone. Pair with a neutral linen or silk lamp shade to direct light down the polished facets of the stone obelisk.

Dust the stone regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and clean using a slightly dampened cloth with mild pH-neutral soap if necessary. Avoid acidic or abrasive liquid cleaners, which can etch the polished surface of natural marble and onyx.
