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.

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

A chimney jack or trammel hook was suspended inside a large open fireplace or hearth to hold cooking pots and kettles. The adjustable ratchet mechanism enabled cooks to alter the height of the vessel over the flames to regulate heat.

These items were individually hand-forged by local blacksmiths using wrought iron. The process involved hammering hot metal to form saw-tooth notches, suspension loops, decorative terminals, and sturdy hooks without modern welding techniques.

Authentic period pieces show hand-hammered surface irregularities, split rivets, and dark surface oxidisation or patina built up over centuries. Modern reproductions often exhibit uniform machine-cut edges and synthetic coatings.

An antique chimney jack can be displayed as architectural salvage within an inglenook fireplace, mounted on a feature wall, or repurposed in a kitchen to suspend copper pans and dried botanicals.

Dust the surface with a soft brush and apply a thin layer of microcrystalline wax or beeswax using a soft cloth. Avoid water and harsh chemicals to prevent rust formation and maintain the natural dark patina.
