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

North African lighting traditionally features hand-pierced metalwork, intricate geometric patterns, and coloured glass inserts designed to diffuse light softly. Originating from Moorish architectural traditions, these fixtures frequently incorporate bulbous silhouettes, scalloped rims, and decorative base finials.

These lighting fixtures are predominantly constructed from hand-punched or pierced sheet brass, copper, or iron metalwork. They often feature integrated stained glass panels or coloured cabochons secured within soldered frames.

Authentic artisan pieces exhibit subtle irregularities from hand-hammering, manually cut fretwork rather than uniform machine stamping, and visible solder joins along the structural seams. The weight of the metalwork and natural oxidisation inside unpolished crevices also indicate traditional manufacturing.

Suspended over a dining table, hallway, or reading corner, a pierced metal lantern serves as a focal point while casting intricate patterned shadows across surrounding walls. It pairs effectively with bohemian, modern Mediterranean, or eclectic maximalist interior concepts.

Dust the exterior regularly using a soft dry cloth or small brush to keep the pierced cutouts clear. To treat oxidised brass, apply a non-abrasive metal cleaner sparingly, taking care to keep liquids away from internal electrical components and glass inserts.
