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.

This nineteenth-century Chinese Qing Dynasty table lamp derives from a lidded vase converted for illumination. The porcelain body displays a black glaze with gilded floral motifs and famille noire enamel decoration, mounted upon a gilded ormolu base with a matching turned fitting and a small ball finial at the top. A cream-coloured pleated fabric lampshade surmounts the structure, completing the English Country house aesthetic. The object stands at 46 cm high. Positioned upon a sideboard top, the piece introduces warm ambient light and traditional decoration to a living room, hallway, or dining space. The combination of black and gold tones within the enamel work provides a striking visual contrast suitable for both traditional and eclectic interiors. The lamp operates as a functional light source while retaining the ornamental character of the original porcelain vessel, integrating smoothly into domestic settings alongside other decorative objects.

FAQs

Famille Noire refers to Chinese porcelain characterised by a predominant black enamel ground overlaid with painted motifs such as flora, foliage, and geometric decorative patterns.

These lighting fixtures feature a high-fired porcelain vessel mounted onto a timber or gilt-metal base, fitted with electrical wiring and topped with a framed fabric lampshade.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-applied enamelling with subtle surface variations, gentle wear to gilded areas, evidence of drilling or mounting for conversion, and traditional Qing dynasty ceramic weight.

A porcelain vase lamp provides vertical balance when positioned on a sideboard, console table, or side table within traditional, eclectic, or contemporary interior schemes.

Dust the ceramic body regularly using a soft, dry microfibre cloth, avoid abrasive liquid polishes on gilded surfaces, and clean the pleated fabric shade using a dry brush attachment.
