FAQs

A settle is a traditional wooden bench with a high back, solid arms, and often a storage compartment beneath the seat, dating back to the medieval period and widely used in European domestic and tavern interiors to block draughts.

These pieces were typically constructed from heavy native timbers such as oak, walnut, or pine, employing traditional joinery methods including mortise and tenon joints, wooden pegged fixings, and hand-planed boards.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-appropriate tool marks, hand-forged iron nails or structural pins, natural timber shrinkage, deep oxidisation and patina built up over centuries, and construction traits consistent with early cabinet-making techniques.

A large antique bench can be anchored in a grand hallway or used to provide contrasting structural warmth against minimalist contemporary walls, softened with textured linen cushions or a simple wool throw.

Preserve antique wood by maintaining stable indoor humidity levels, avoiding direct sunlight and heat sources, and occasionally applying microcrystalline wax to nourish and protect the historic surface finish.
