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.

These late nineteenth-century Victorian ornamental ewer lamps present a striking decorative statement for any interior space. Each piece combines a deep cobalt blue glass body with ornate gilt bronze mounts, complemented by a cream fabric shade finished with elaborate hanging fringe and bead tassels. The design incorporates elegant scroll handles, a classical ewer silhouette, and detailed relief cartouche decorations set above stepped, scrolled feet. Hand-made silk shades and newly rewired electrical components complete the assembly, ensuring readiness for modern use. Each lamp measures 107 cm high by 46 cm wide and 46 cm deep. Placed upon a sideboard top or a grand console table in a formal living room, hallway or study, these lamps provide both warm illumination and a touch of period character to the surrounding decor.

FAQs

An ewer lamp is a table lighting fixture crafted using a narrow-necked pitcher or vessel form as the central body, highly popularised during the late nineteenth century.

These lamps were typically constructed using cobalt glass, porcelain, or earthenware vessels mounted with cast gilt bronze or brass fittings and topped with fabric shades.

Authentic period examples feature cast metal mounts with hand-finished chased detailing, natural oxidisation in the crevices, and structural weight consistent with period glass manufacturing.

Position a matching pair symmetrically on a sideboard, console table, or hallway dresser to establish visual balance and introduce decorative contrast to contemporary spaces.

Dust glass and metal elements using a dry, soft microfibre cloth, taking care to avoid liquid chemicals or abrasive metal polishes that can damage original gilding.
