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.

Figural door knockers became prominent during the Renaissance and Victorian periods, often incorporating classical grotesque heads, mythological figures, or lions to symbolise protection and prestige at the entrance of a property.

Historically, door knockers were cast in solid brass, bronze, or wrought iron due to their durability, weather resistance, and ability to hold fine relief detail during the casting process.

Authentic period pieces often feature casting seam marks on the reverse, heavy weight due to solid metal construction, and natural wear or patination in unpolished crevices around fixings and hinges.

A polished bronze or brass knocker creates a striking contrast when mounted on painted timber front doors in neutral tones such as dark navy, off-white, or forest green.

Polished bronze should be wiped down regularly with a soft cloth to remove dust and moisture, and occasional application of specialized metal polish or microcrystalline wax helps protect against tarnish and oxidisation.
