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

During the 19th century, brass fire screens were positioned to shield room occupants from direct radiant heat and to prevent stray embers from damaging surrounding carpets and furnishings, while serving as a decorative focal point when the hearth was unlit.

These screens were predominantly constructed from cast or wrought brass and bronze, frequently incorporating fine wire mesh or woven fabric inserts within framed borders to allow warmth to filter through while containing sparks.

Authentic period pieces demonstrate cast metal construction with hand-chased detailing, considerable weight, natural surface oxidisation or patina in recessed areas, and period assembly hardware such as hand-cut screws.

Place the screen centrally before a traditional or decommissioned fireplace opening to anchor the living area, or pair it with neutral contemporary surrounding materials to highlight its detailed metalwork.

Maintain the surface by dusting regularly with a soft, dry lint-free cloth, avoiding harsh chemical polishes or abrasive pads that could remove protective lacquers or historic patination.
