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.

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

Popularised during the nineteenth century, boot scrapers were placed outside entrances to allow visitors to remove mud, unpaved street dirt, and debris from their footwear before entering a residence.

Most historic boot scrapers were made from heavy cast iron or forged wrought iron to withstand constant outdoor exposure and physical wear, often featuring integrated trays to catch falling mud.

Authentic period pieces usually display heavy cast metal construction, natural surface oxidisation or patina, hand-drilled mounting holes, and subtle casting seams consistent with nineteenth-century manufacturing methods.

Boot scrapers can be positioned beside a front porch, inside a boot room, or within a hallway setting to introduce texture and historical character alongside contemporary utility items.

To preserve historic patination, brush away loose surface dirt with a soft dry bristle brush and apply a thin layer of microcrystalline wax or iron paste to prevent further moisture oxidisation.
