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.
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.
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.

Andirons, historically termed firedogs or chenets in France, are hearth accessories designed to elevate logs, allowing airflow beneath the fuel to improve combustion within open fireplaces.

Firedogs from this period were typically cast or hand-forged from iron, bronze, or brass to withstand high temperatures and direct flame contact.

Authentic pieces often exhibit signs of hand-forging or period casting techniques, surface oxidisation, minor casting irregularities, and heat wear along the rear log irons.

These items can be positioned inside active open hearths, arranged within non-working decorative fireplace openings, or styled as standalone architectural objects.

Clean the metal surface gently using a dry brush and apply a light coating of clear microcrystalline wax or iron paste to prevent surface rust while retaining the natural patina.
