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

A half lantern wall sconce is a wall-mounted light fixture crafted with a flat back profile, designed to simulate the appearance of a three-dimensional lantern while fitting flush against a vertical surface.

French gilt bronze lighting typically features cast bronze mounts finished via mercury gilding or gold lacquer, fitted with hand-shaped glass panels and internal candle or electrical sockets.

Authentic pieces exhibit heavy cast bronze construction, hand-chiselled surface detail, period-appropriate reverse fixings, and natural patination or wear in lower-recessed areas.

Mount them in pairs along a hallway, flanking a central mirror, or along a formal dining room wall to introduce architectural depth and warm ambient illumination.

Dust the metalwork regularly with a soft dry brush and wipe the glass panels gently with a damp microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh liquid polishes that can strip original gilding.
