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

Convex half lanterns are wall-mounted light fixtures with a semi-cylindrical shape and curved glass front designed to mount flat against a wall, originally engineered for narrow corridors and entryways.

Traditional French wall sconces typically combine sheet brass or bronze framing, decorative metalwork trim, and clear curved glass panels housing internal candle or electric fittings.

Authentic period examples feature hand-assembled metal frames, natural patination on the brass surfaces, hand-cut glass curved panels, and characteristic decorative details like twisted wire or rope borders.

Position them in pairs along a hallway, flanking a mantelpiece, or framing a doorway to create symmetrical ambient lighting without encroaching into walkway space.

Dust the brass frames regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, clean the glass panels with a gentle glass cleaner applied via cloth, and avoid abrasive polishes that remove protective patination.
