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.

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.
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.

Edwardian column desk lamps are defined by classical architectural influences, drawing heavily from Neoclassical and Classical Revival designs. They typically feature fluted stems, Corinthian or Ionic capitals, and heavy stepped square plinths.

Lamps from this period were predominantly constructed from solid cast or turned brass, often weighted internally with iron base plates for stability. Shades were commonly made of silk, parchment, or painted card stock.

Authentic pieces feature heavy cast brass components, natural surface patination or tarnishing in recessed areas, and threaded brass fittings rather than modern plastic or snap-together parts. Original cord entry points are located near the base.

Position the lamp on a dark wood writing desk, console table, or sideboard to create a focal point. Combining a classical brass column base with a modern black shade provides balanced contrast within both traditional and contemporary room schemes.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth to prevent build-up. Avoid using harsh chemical polishes or abrasive cleaners, which strip away the natural antique patina; if necessary, wipe with a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately.
