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

During the 19th century, hearth tools were designed with decorative knopped handles, turned shafts, and ornate shovel blades featuring shell or scroll motifs, blending functional utility with classical styling.

Antique sets were typically cast or turned from solid brass, with wrought iron or steel tips used on pokers and tongs to withstand direct exposure to hot coals.

Authentic period pieces often display cast seams, hand-chased decorative details, threaded handle assemblies, and subtle wear or oxidisation where brass joins iron components.

Positioned beside a hearth or stored within a cast-iron or brass stand, these items add textural depth and historical contrast to both traditional inglenooks and minimalist fireplaces.

Dust the surfaces regularly and clean brass elements with microcrystalline wax or standard metal polish to prevent tarnish, keeping any iron tips lightly oiled against corrosion.
