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

Historically, fire screens were placed directly in front of open hearths to shield occupants from intense radiant heat and reduce draughts, while simultaneously serving as decorative focal points in drawing rooms.

These screens typically feature a hand-carved hardwood frame, such as walnut, rosewood, or mahogany, which encloses a hand-stitched wool or silk needlepoint panel mounted on a fabric backing.

Authentic pieces from the 1840s exhibit hand-carved timber joinery with natural age-related patination, hand-worked needlepoint stitching showing minor variations, and period-typical Rococo Revival scrollwork.

Position the screen near an unused fireplace hearth, inside a chimney alcove, or beside an armchair to introduce rich texture, warm wood tones, and historical character to contemporary living spaces.

Dust the carved timber frame gently with a soft microfibre cloth and apply beeswax sparingly, while cleaning the delicate textile panel using a low-suction vacuum cleaner fitted with a mesh screen attachment.
