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.

French wall sconces from this era typically feature symmetrical twin branches, cast metal construction, classical motifs such as fleur-de-lis, and silvered or gilded surface finishes.

Antique candle sconces were primarily cast in brass, bronze, or iron, often finished with silver plating, gilt ormolu, or protective lacquer.

Authentic pieces display historical casting marks, hand-chased decorative motifs, natural surface oxidation or patina, and traditional threaded mounting assemblies.

Position candle sconces in pairs flanking a central feature, such as a fireplace alcove, artwork, or wall mirror, to create balanced architectural interest.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and avoid abrasive polishes or chemical cleansers that can remove delicate historical silver plating.
