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.

Originally designed during the 18th and 19th centuries, hall lanterns were created to protect candle or oil flames from draughts in hallways and vestibules while providing omnidirectional light through glazed panels.

Authentic examples typically feature cast or sheet brass frames fitted with hand-blown glass panels, often accented with pierced fretwork, scrollwork brackets, and crown finials.

Look for hand-finished casting marks, original hinged door latches, naturally aged patination in crevices, and signs of historical conversion from gas or candle power to electricity.

These light fixtures serve as focal points in high-ceiling foyers, stairwells, or above a dining room table to add historical architecture and structural interest to modern spaces.

Dust the metalwork regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and clean glass panels using a mild glass cleaner, avoiding harsh chemical polishes that strip natural patina.
