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

French Rococo fire screens feature asymmetrical curves, rocaille scrollwork, foliage motifs, and figurative elements such as cherubs or putti. Popularised during the eighteenth century under Louis XV, these functional guards were designed to shield room occupants from direct hearth heat while serving as an ornamental focal point.

Authentic historic examples are predominantly crafted from cast bronze or brass, often finished with fire gilding or ormolu to achieve a bright gold surface. The central shielding section typically incorporates woven metal wire mesh or pierced brass panels set within the structural frame.

Authentic period examples demonstrate substantial weight from cast bronze, finely hand-chased surface decoration, and uneven wear to the gilded finish that reveals darker bronze substrate underneath. Mechanical details like hand-cut screw threads and irregular wire mesh construction also indicate hand manufacturing.

An ornate metal fire screen creates a textured accent when placed inside or directly before a modern unlit fireplace opening. It can also be styled within a contemporary living room alcove or layered against neutral masonry to contrast ornate metalwork with clean architectural lines.

Dust the ornate metalwork regularly using a soft dry brush or microfibre cloth to remove debris from carved crevices. Avoid chemical solvents or abrasive metal polishes, as these will wear away the delicate gilded coating; clean damp wipe-downs should be limited to minimal moisture.
