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.

A Victorian scrapwork screen is a multi-panel folding room divider decorated with printed paper cutouts, known as scraps or chromolithographs, layered over wooden panels and sealed with varnish during the late nineteenth century.

These screens typically feature a solid timber frame, such as mahogany or pine, supporting panels made of stretched canvas, board, or wood onto which paper illustrations were pasted and protected with natural oil varnish.

Authentic nineteenth-century pieces display period-appropriate chromolithographic print processes, subtle colour fading, fine craquelure in the protective varnish layer, and traditional brass hinges joining the frame sections.

Place a three-panel folding screen in the corner of a room to add textural interest, create functional zones in open-plan spaces, or act as a decorative backdrop behind a seating arrangement.

Keep the screen away from direct sunlight and damp conditions to prevent paper peeling and varnish degradation, dusting gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth without using liquid cleaners.
