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.

  • ObjectTable Lamps
  • Period19th century
  • StyleFrench Rococo Revival
  • MaterialPorcelain, Ormolu, Silk
  • ColourCobalt Blue and Gold

  • SizeH 55 cm (22 in) x W 25 cm (10 in) x D 20 cm (8 in)

This pair of late nineteenth-century French Sevres-style table lamps takes the form of classical urns mounted on square stepped bases with decorative feet. Each lamp displays a rich cobalt blue porcelain body embellished with intricate gilded motifs, detailed ormolu mask handles to the sides, and a hand-painted romantic vignette depicting courting figures. The tapered fabric lampshades feature vertical pleating and a hanging fringe trim along the bottom edge, completed by a turned finial at the top. Measuring 55 cm high, 25 cm wide, and 20 cm deep, these French Rococo Revival fixtures suit placement on a sideboard top or large console table within a traditional interior scheme.

FAQs

Sevres-style porcelain lamps are inspired by the creations of the French Royal Manufactory at Sevres, characterised by rich ground colours such as cobalt blue (bleu de roi), elaborate gilt detailing, and central hand-painted vignettes depicting romantic or mythological scenes.

These lighting fixtures typically combine high-fired hard-paste or soft-paste porcelain with cast gilt bronze (ormolu) mounts for bases, handles, and collars, often topped with custom silk or fabric shades.

Identification relies on checking for fine hand-painted panel artwork, double-L interlaced factory marks (though often imitation on 19th-century revival pieces), heavy cast ormolu mounts with crisp chasing, and natural age-related wear to the gilding.

These decorative fixtures can be placed symmetrically on a contemporary sideboard, console, or mantelpiece to create visual contrast against neutral walls and minimalist modern furniture.

Porcelain surfaces should be dusted with a soft microfibre cloth, while gilt bronze mounts require gentle cleaning with a dry soft brush to remove dust without stripping original patination or gilding.
