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

Italian cherub wall sconces are decorative lighting fixtures featuring sculpted putti or cherubs, historically crafted during the Baroque and Rococo periods to depict classical themes.

These fixtures are typically constructed from carved wood or cast metal with hand-applied gold leaf gilding, often accented with blown Murano glass floral details and metal candle arms.

Authentic pieces display evidence of hand-carving or hand-casting, natural age-related patination or oxidisation on the gilding, and hand-blown glass elements with slight variations.

Position a pair flanking a central mantelpiece, framing an ornate wall mirror, or creating a focal point within an entryway or dining room setting.

Dust gently using a soft, dry microfibre cloth or feather duster, avoiding liquid cleaners or abrasive chemicals that can damage original gilding and glass components.
