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

Fire dogs, or andirons, originated as practical hearth tools designed to elevate burning logs, improving airflow and combustion in open fires. Over centuries, particularly during the 17th to 19th centuries, they evolved into decorative architectural features within grand reception rooms.

Historical fire dogs were typically crafted from cast iron, wrought iron, or cast brass. Iron was selected for its high heat resistance on the functional rear billet, while polished or lacquered brass was favoured for the decorative front-facing uprights.

Authentic period examples often feature cast iron ironmongery attached via threaded rods or square nuts at the rear. Look for hand-finished casting seams, natural oxidisation in low-relief areas, and substantial physical weight.

These architectural hearth elements can be positioned within active open fireplaces or decorative, non-working hearth alcoves. They provide structural interest when framed by a marble or timber mantelpiece in contemporary living spaces.

Dust the surface regularly using a soft dry cloth to prevent soot accumulation. Periodically apply a specialist metal polish to remove tarnish, or leave the natural aged patina intact to preserve historical integrity.
