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

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

A convex half-wall lantern is a lighting fixture designed to mount flush against a flat wall, featuring a semi-circular curved glass front that encloses the light source.

Traditional French wall sconces are constructed using cast or stamped brass, often gilded or lacquered, combined with clear blown or bent glass panels.

Authentic period pieces display cast metal details with subtle hand-finishing, natural age-related oxidisation in hard-to-reach areas, and original glass fitted into hand-assembled frames.

Position wall sconces in pairs to frame architectural features such as doorways, chimney breasts, or hallway mirrors to create balanced ambient lighting.

Clean the glass using a lint-free cloth and mild glass cleaner, while gently dusting the brasswork with a dry microfibre cloth to preserve existing patina.
