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.

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

Andirons, historically known as firedogs, were designed to support wooden logs above the hearth bed to allow air circulation underneath for improved burning. During the Victorian era, cast brass fronts were crafted to add decorative ornament to coal and wood-burning fireplaces.

Victorian firedogs typically featured cast brass front columns mounted onto heavy iron billets or rails that extended into the fireplace. The brass was turned, cast, and hand-polished, while the iron rear provided heat resistance and structural weight.

Authentic Victorian examples often exhibit hand-turned brass components with visible threaded steel rods running through the centre, connecting the finial to the base. Look for cast seams, natural surface wear, and heavy iron billets with characteristic oxidisation.

Position a pair of polished brass andirons within an unused or decorative fireplace opening to add texture and metallic warmth to the hearth. Alternatively, place them alongside a modern fire basket or inside a minimalist stove recess for historical contrast.

Maintain the brass finish by dusting regularly with a microfibre cloth and applying a non-abrasive metal polish sparingly to remove tarnishing. To preserve natural patina, avoid harsh chemical solvents and keep the iron components dry to prevent corrosion.
