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.

A pair of brass wall sconces from 1900 in the Art Nouveau style comprises polished gold-coloured brass backplates with intricate scrolling details, supporting slender gooseneck arms that curve outward to terminate in small scroll finials. Twisted brown corded flex hangs from each arm to suspend clear ruffled glass shades enclosing electric bulbs with pointed teardrop filaments, creating a distinct decorative pairing. The polished brass finish catches the light, contrasting with the transparent glass and the dark metallic sheen of the decorative backplates attached to the wall. Each sconce measures 30 cm high, 15 cm wide, and 23 cm deep. These light fixtures suit domestic placement in a fireplace alcove, a hallway, or either side of a living room mirror to provide accent illumination. The electrical elements include rewired corded flex designed for interior connection to household mains circuits. Such wall sconces bring period character to traditional interior schemes while offering functional lighting for atmospheric evening use in residential settings.

FAQs

Art Nouveau lighting emerged in the late 19th century, characterised by organic curves, sinuous whip-lash lines, and motifs inspired by natural forms such as plants and flowers.

These fixtures were predominantly crafted from cast or polished brass, bronze, and copper, often paired with hand-blown, frosted, or ruffled glass shades.

Authentic period pieces feature cast brass components with subtle surface variations, original threaded joinery, and period-appropriate glass shade fitters rather than modern standardized plastic fittings.

They serve as ambient accent lighting when installed in pairs flanking a hallway mirror, positioned within fireplace alcoves, or mounted on narrow feature walls to introduce warm metal tones.

Brass surfaces can be maintained by dusting with a soft dry cloth, avoiding harsh abrasive cleaners, while glass shades should be gently removed and hand-washed in lukewarm soapy water.
