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

Victorian marble fireplace surrounds frequently feature detailed hand-carved elements, arched openings, and decorative floral or foliate friezes. Statuary marble was extensively used during the 19th century for formal reception rooms due to its fine grain and white aesthetic.

High-grade natural marbles, including Italian statuary and Carrara varieties, were carved and assembled in multiple sections over masonry or cast-iron inserts. Joints were anchored using iron cramps and secured with plaster of Paris.

Authentic period pieces display hand-carving marks, subtle natural veining, and wear along the base and corners. Original iron tie points, plaster residues, or unpolished rear surfaces also indicate historic craftsmanship.

A carved white marble surround provides a focal point when set against contemporary painted walls or paired with simple cast-iron grates. Positioning modern artwork or a clean-lined mirror above the mantel balances traditional structure with contemporary decor.

Marble should be cleaned using pH-neutral stone soap diluted in warm water and applied with soft microfibre cloths. Acidic cleaners must be avoided to prevent etching, and neutral microcrystalline wax can be applied periodically to protect the surface.
