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

In 19th-century interiors, window pelmets served both functional and decorative purposes by concealing curtain rods and fixings while adding grand architectural detail to high-ceilinged rooms.

Nineteenth-century pelmets were typically crafted from timber frames, decorated with hand-carved woodwork or moulded composition ornament, and finished with gilding, paint, or lacquer.

Authentic period pelmets feature hand-cut joinery, layered gesso and leafing showing natural oxidisation, and timber backing boards with hand-sawn tool marks.

An antique pelmet can be mounted above a large window frame to structure contemporary drapery or repurposed as a dramatic architectural overdoor element in an entryway or drawing room.

Maintain gilded timber pelmets by dusting gently with a soft, dry camel-hair brush, avoiding liquid cleaners or solvents that dissolve historic gesso and gold leaf.
