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.

Doctor style door knockers were popularised during the Georgian and Victorian eras, serving to denote the residence of a physician who could be summoned for medical emergencies at any hour.

Period door knockers were typically cast in solid brass, bronze, or iron, featuring heavy metal strikes, threaded fixing bolts, and decorative details such as rope twist patterns.

Authentic examples display substantial weight from cast metal construction, minor surface variations from historical moulding techniques, and mounting hardware with period thread cuts.

A brass door knocker can be mounted centrally on painted timber front doors in contrasting tones such as navy blue, dark green, or charcoal black.

Brass door hardware can be maintained by wiping with a soft damp cloth, using a specialised brass polish to remove tarnish, or leaving it unpolished to develop natural oxidisation.
