Dealers Notes

Robert Belcher Antiques was established in 1984 and is a high-quality retailer of interesting, rare antiques and decorative objects. After forty years of shop keeping and maintaining beautiful showrooms, which have been regularly open six days a week, Robert and Wendy have now taken a slightly different approach to their business. Having sold their retail premises, the antique business is now fully online. The picture framing service has ceased to operate because of moving online.

You can contact Robert and Wendy by email or telephone to discuss items from their extensive catalogue of attractive pieces and make purchases. Customers can rest assured that the long-established dealership is continuing to run in an exceedingly professional way, selling genuine and high-quality items which are guaranteed to please the most discerning collector, decorator or homeowner.

All items will be personally hand packaged to a high standard. Small items are extensively wrapped using the best materials and are often double boxed. Items are then shipped with DHL or Royal Mail fully insured and often with next day delivery. Larger items would be personally delivered or sent with a specialist antique delivery firm, or for outside the U.K, a professional shipping company.

Please enjoy viewing their collection of rare and interesting pieces and have the assurance that Robert and Wendy will do their utmost to make sure your experience is exceptional, as has been recognised by many customers who have bought with confidence regularly over the years.

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

The Aesthetic Movement flourished from the 1870s to the 1890s, rejecting heavy Victorian ornamentation in favour of simplified forms, Japanese design influences, and refined functionality in everyday household objects like tea kettles and metalware.

Spirit kettles were typically manufactured from metals such as brass, copper, silver plate, or solid silver. Handles were frequently insulated with cane, wicker, or ebonised wood to protect the user from heat, while the base housed an alcohol-fuelled burner.

Authentic 19th-century pieces usually exhibit stamped makers marks or registry numbers on the underside, hand-soldered joints, period-correct wear around the burner mechanism, and original insulating materials like woven cane on the handle.

A brass spirit kettle functions well as a decorative focal point displayed on a dining room sideboard, kitchen island, or open shelving, bringing warm metallic tones and historical texture to contemporary or traditional spaces.

Dust the item regularly with a soft, dry cloth. If cleaning brass, use a gentle metal polish sparingly while taking care to avoid contact with original woven cane handles or wooden finials, which should be kept dry.
