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

Traditionally placed before an open fireplace, brass fire screens were used to shield occupants from direct radiant heat and draft, while decorative embossed panels concealed soot and unlit hearths.

These decorative items were typically manufactured using repousse and chasing techniques, hammering thin sheets of brass from the reverse side to create raised, three-dimensional scenes.

Authentic pieces generally display evidence of hand-tooling on the reverse, hand-rolled or riveted borders, and natural oxidisation within the deeper recessed areas of the metalwork.

Positioned inside an inactive fireplace opening or set against a plain stone hearth, a relief-patterned brass screen introduces metallic warmth, texture, and historical character to neutral living rooms.

Dust the surface periodically using a soft, dry lint-free cloth, avoiding harsh abrasive cleaners or chemical polishes that strip natural age-related patina and leave white residue in intricate relief crevices.
