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.

These fixtures feature sculpted classical cherubs or putti integrated into Rococo-style decorative foliage and scrolling frames, reflecting European revival styles popular during the 19th century.

Sconces from this period typically combined carved giltwood or cast gilt metal with porcelain floral embellishments and frosted or clear glass shades.

Look for evidence of hand-carving or hand-chasing, period-appropriate wiring or conversion from candles, hand-painted porcelain components, and genuine patina or gilding wear.

Mount them on a narrow wall space, flanking a mantelpiece, or above a sideboard to provide indirect atmospheric lighting and architectural interest in contemporary or classic interiors.

Dust gently with a soft dry brush, avoiding water or chemical solvents that could strip water gilding or damage antique porcelain elements, and consult a qualified electrician for safe wiring.
