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

French Rococo revival lighting from the nineteenth century features asymmetric scrollwork, acanthus leaf motifs, mascarons, and multi-arm configurations designed to hold candles or early gas fittings.

These wall appliques were predominantly cast in heavy bronze or brass and finished with mercury gilding, known as ormolu, to create a reflective gold surface.

Authentic period pieces display crisp hand-chased surface details, heavy cast construction, hand-cut threaded connections, and natural age-related oxidisation on unpolished back surfaces.

Position wall sconces symmetrically to frame a central architectural feature, such as above a sideboard, flanking a mantelpiece, or alongside a large framed mirror.

Dust gilt bronze regularly using a soft, dry brush or microfibre cloth, avoiding chemical metal cleaners or abrasives that can wear away the original gilded layer.
