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

Versailles style French lanterns are distinguished by elaborate brass metalwork, ornate classical motifs such as acanthus leaves, and multi-faceted glass panels designed to illuminate grand entrances and interiors.

These light fixtures were typically constructed using cast brass or gilt bronze, fitted with hand-cut bevelled glass panes held in place by decorative metal clips.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-finished brass joinery, original patination in recessed details, heavy bevelled glass inserts, and period-appropriate wiring or candle fittings.

Suspend the light fixture in a foyer, hallway, or above a dining area to create an architectural focal point that complements both classic and contemporary schemes.

Dust the brass and glass regularly with a soft microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemical polishes that can strip the natural aged patina from the metal finish.
