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 became prominent features in European homes during the 18th and 19th centuries, designed to shield occupants from intense heat while adding decorative structure to the hearth when fires were unlit.

Traditional fire screens were typically constructed using cast brass, bronze, or wrought iron, featuring fine wire mesh panels held within frames decorated with scrollwork and cast feet.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-finished casting details, natural oxidisation in crevices, cast brass components with subtle variations, and fine woven mesh rather than uniform modern wire.

Position the screen directly on the fireplace hearth to frame an unlit chimney opening, or pair it with minimalist surrounds to create a contrasting focal point.

Dust regularly using a soft brush to clear the mesh screen; avoid abrasive liquid polishes that strip historical patina, applying microcrystalline wax lightly if surface protection is needed.
