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.

Moonstone glass is a type of semi-translucent, opalescent glass developed to diffuse electric light evenly without harsh glare, popular in British residential fixtures during the Edwardian period.

These fixtures typically feature press-moulded opalescent glass shades, fitted with brass or bronze collar rims and suspended using decorative brass or iron link chains.

Authentic period pieces display characteristic mould seams in the glass, natural patination on brass rims, hand-assembled chain links, and soft light diffusion distinct from modern acrylic imitations.

Position glass bowl pendants in entry halls, above stair landings, or over kitchen islands to add subtle period character while maintaining an uncluttered visual profile.

Remove the glass shade carefully from its chain suspension and wash with warm water and mild soap, ensuring metal fittings are wiped clean with a dry cloth to preserve their original patina.
