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.

This pair of 1930 French Chateau style wall lights consists of two matching fixtures constructed from gilt brass and cut glass crystal with mirrored backs. Each piece displays a gold finish on the metal components and a clear finish on the glass elements. The construction incorporates moulded brass rings with upright leaf finials decorated with hanging glass drips, alongside two tiers of cut glass lustres suspended below. Electrical hardware includes B22 large bayonet bulb holders. Each unit measures 27 cm high by 20 cm wide by 12 cm deep, with the brass ring measuring 17 cm in diameter excluding the finials. Suitable placement includes flanking a mirror in a hallway, mounting beside a headboard in a bedroom, or positioning within a fireplace alcove to provide layered accent illumination. The design integrates easily into period or transitional residential interiors where decorative wall-mounted lighting is required.

FAQs

French style crystal wall sconces are decorative wall-mounted light fixtures originating in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, designed to reflect light through cascading glass prisms and drops.

These fixtures typically feature a cast brass or gilt bronze armature supporting tiers of hand-cut lead crystal drops, buttons, and prisms hung with wire links.

Authentic pieces often display natural patination or wear on the gilt finish, hand-cut glass with slight irregularities, and traditional pinned crystal connections rather than modern clips.

Position them on either side of a mirror, fireplace alcove, or artwork to create symmetrical ambient lighting and introduce texture to contemporary wall surfaces.

Clean the crystal prisms individually with a soft, lint-free cloth lightly dampened with a mixture of distilled water and isopropyl alcohol, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners on the gilt metalwork.
