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

Fire screens were originally designed in the 18th and 19th centuries to protect room occupants from the direct radiant heat of an open flame and shield delicate complexions, while also serving as a decorative feature to conceal an unlit hearth during warmer months.

Historical fire screens typically feature cast or stamped brass frames, iron structural supports, fine wire mesh spark netting, or woven textile panels stretched across a decorative surround.

Authentic pieces often exhibit hand-assembled joinery, natural oxidisation on untouched reverse surfaces, hand-chased relief ornamentation, solid cast brass weight, and slight surface irregularities consistent with historic heat exposure and age.

Position the screen centrally directly in front of an unlit or functional fireplace opening to create a warm focal point, complementing marble surrounds, dark painted walls, and companion hearth tools.

Dust regularly with a dry, lint-free cloth and polish cast brass components using a specialized brass cleaner applied sparingly, taking care to avoid harsh chemical cleansers that may remove natural patina or damage delicate mesh panels.
