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

Originating in the eighteenth century, fire fenders were designed as decorative low barriers placed around the perimeter of an open hearth. They served the practical purpose of containing flying embers and ash while defining the hearth space within formal reception rooms.

Eighteenth- and nineteenth-century hearth fenders were typically fabricated using heavy gauge polished steel or cast iron, frequently trimmed with gilt bronze, brass, or chiseled ormolu mounts for decorative contrast.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-chased metalwork, heavy solid metal construction, and original fixing joints such as hand-cut screws or rivets on the underside. Wear to original gilding and natural oxidisation on raw steel undersides also indicate age.

An antique fender can be placed on a stone or marble hearth to frame a restored period fireplace or an ornamental non-working hearth. It can also serve as an architectural boundary in formal living rooms, libraries, or dining spaces.

Polished steel surfaces should be kept dry and wiped occasionally with a small amount of microcrystalline wax to prevent oxidisation and surface rust. Gilt bronze mounts should be gently dusted with a soft brush, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners that strip period gilding.
