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.

An Art Nouveau fire screen is a decorative hearth accessory dating from the late 19th to early 20th century, designed to protect living spaces from embers while displaying organic, nature-inspired motifs.

These screens commonly feature hand-hammered or repousse copper and brass panels mounted within wrought iron, cast iron, or wooden frames, incorporating intricate metalworking techniques.

Authentic pieces exhibit characteristic whiplash curves, stylised botanical patterns, hand-formed rivets, original patination on metal surfaces, and slight irregularities indicative of period craftsmanship.

An antique fire screen can serve as a focal point inside an unused fireplace opening, sit beside a stove, or act as a standalone sculptural metalwork element on a hearth or alcove shelf.

Clean gently with a soft microfibre cloth to remove dust, avoiding harsh polish that strips original surface patination; a light application of microcrystalline wax protects ironwork against oxidisation.
