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

Folding screens originated in ancient China and were adopted across Europe during the seventeenth century to divide larger living chambers, create private dressing areas, and shield room occupants from draughts near open fireplaces.

Traditional European folding screens were constructed using solid hardwood frames, such as mahogany, oak, or walnut, joined with brass double-action hinges and fitted with woven fabric, leather, or painted canvas panels.

Authentic period screens feature hand-cut mortise and tenon joints in the timber framework, natural patination on the brass hinges, and age-appropriate wear along the bottom rails and fabric margins.

A fabric folding screen can be placed in open-plan spaces to define separate zones, positioned behind a sofa as a textured backdrop, or used in a bedroom corner to add architectural interest and textile contrast.

Timber frames should be dusted with a soft microfibre cloth and treated periodically with beeswax, while fabric panels should be gently vacuumed using a soft brush attachment away from direct sunlight.
