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 a functional decorative shield developed in the 18th century to protect occupants faces and wax makeup from the direct intensity of open coal or wood fires while allowing heat to circulate.

William IV pole screens were predominantly crafted from dense hardwoods such as rosewood or mahogany, paired with brass adjustment mechanisms and decorative textile panels featuring needlepoint, tapestry, or silk embroidery.

Authentic 19th-century examples typically display hand-carved details, heavy triform or tripod bases with original brass castors, threaded brass friction stops, and natural aging on the timber and hand-stitched needlework.

These decorative stands function well as accent pieces positioned alongside hearths, placed within empty corners, or styled next to armchairs in traditional and eclectic interior settings.

Keep the piece away from direct sunlight and modern heat sources to prevent timber cracking and textile fading. Clean wood with natural beeswax and clean the textile panel using gentle dry vacuuming behind protective mesh.
