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

Florentine wall lights originate from Tuscany and are characterised by elaborate hand-carved floral motifs, sweeping scrolls, and gold leaf finishing. They frequently incorporate multiple candle arms and crystal embellishments designed to reflect ambient candlelight.

Traditional construction utilizes carved timber or hand-forged iron coated in a plaster gesso base, which is then layered with gold leaf gilding. Cut lead glass or crystal drops are frequently appended to the drip pans to enhance light diffusion.

Authentic period examples demonstrate subtle hand-carving irregularities and natural wear on high points, often revealing the reddish clay bole underlayer beneath the gilding. Additionally, original crystal drops display hand-cut facets and slight variations in size.

A pair of giltwood sconces can be mounted on either side of an overmantel mirror, artwork, or entryway console table to provide symmetrical balance. Their warm metallic finish pairs effectively with dark, dramatic wall colours or neutral contemporary schemes.

Giltwood surfaces should be dusted using a soft, dry camel-hair brush to prevent chipping the delicate gold leaf. Crystal drops can be wiped gently using a damp lint-free cloth, avoiding contact between moisture and the gilded timber or metal components.
