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

An antique brass adjustable standard lamp is a tall floor-standing light source featuring a height-extension mechanism, originally developed during the late nineteenth century for flexible domestic lighting.

These lamps predominantly utilise cast and turned brass or bronze for the column and base structure, often paired with fabric shades finished with decorative tassels, glass chimneys, or ceramic reservoirs.

Authentic pieces by Messenger & Sons or Messenger typically feature stamped maker marks on the burner components or base casting, alongside characteristic heavy brass construction and fine Victorian casting details.

Positioning an antique brass standard lamp alongside contemporary minimalist furniture provides a visual anchor, balancing modern clean lines with warm metallic tones and textured fabric shades.

Dusting regularly with a soft dry cloth prevents build-up; original lacquered brass surfaces should be kept free from harsh abrasive polishes to preserve historical patination and surface finish.
