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

Louis XVI style fireplace accessories feature neoclassical symmetry inspired by classical antiquity. Common motifs include covered urns, flaming finials, Greek key borders, drapery swags, and balustrade galleries.

Traditional French fire dogs, or chenets, were primarily cast in bronze or brass. Higher quality examples were finished with ormolu gilding or chased detailed hand-finishing.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-chased details, threaded rod assembly connecting components, natural wear to the metal undersides, and cast weight consistent with solid brass or bronze.

Fire dogs can be placed inside an active or decorative fireplace opening to ground the hearth area. In non-working fireplaces, styling them alongside stacked birch logs or pillar candles creates visual interest.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft cloth to prevent accumulation in detailed relief work. Avoid abrasive metal polishes that can remove historic patina or gilt finishes.
