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

Half lanterns, or wall-mounted sconces with semi-circular profiles, originated as space-saving lighting solutions for narrow corridors and foyers. Historically crafted from metal frames and glass panes, they protected light sources while casting ambient illumination outward.

Traditional examples feature brass, bronze, or polished copper framing combined with clear, bevelled, or curved glass panels. Internal fixtures often incorporate candle sleeves designed to mimic wax light sources.

Authentic historical pieces often feature cast or spun brass components with hand-finished joinery, natural surface patination, and hand-bent glass. Electrical conversions typically show retrofitted wiring tracks near the rear mounting plates.

Position these wall lights in pairs along hallways, flanking an entryway mirror, or accenting a dining room wall. The flush back profile allows them to provide architectural illumination without encroaching into walkway spaces.

Dust the glass panels regularly with a microfibre cloth and clean glass surfaces using a mild liquid glass cleaner. Preserve the brass patination by wiping with a dry soft cloth, avoiding abrasive chemical polishes.
