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.
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.

A pole screen is an adjustable standing panel designed to be positioned between an open hearth fire and a person seated nearby. During the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, these screens were used to shield facial skin and wax-based makeup from intense direct heat while allowing ambient warmth to circulate around the room.

Framing and support structures were typically crafted from fine hardwoods such as mahogany, rosewood, or walnut, featuring turned central shafts and tripod bases. The decorative central panels usually showcased hand-worked needlepoint, wool tapestry, silk embroidery, or glazed glass screens.

Authentic period pole screens feature hand-carved details, turned timber finials, and original brass or wooden tension screw fittings used to adjust panel height. Inspecting the underside reveals hand-cut joinery, period leg attachments, and natural age-related oxidisation in the timber grain and textile backing.

Pole screens serve as functional decorative accents when placed beside a fireplace hearth, in a cosy reading nook, or within a hallway alcove. Their tall, slender vertical profile adds texture, historic character, and soft textile colour without taking up significant floor area.

Timber surfaces should be dusted regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and treated periodically with natural beeswax polish. The embroidered panel requires gentle cleaning with a soft brush attachment or dry conservation methods, and the entire piece should be placed away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent timber movement and fabric fading.
