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.

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

A goffering iron, also known as a tally iron, is a traditional laundering appliance featuring a hollow cylindrical barrel mounted on a vertical pillar, historically used to press frills, lace, and ruffs into shape.

Georgian examples typically consist of cast brass or iron barrels mounted onto turned baluster stems and heavy circular bases, designed to safely contain an internal heated iron slug.

Authentic 18th-century pieces feature hand-turned baluster columns, visible casting seams, weighted bases for balance, and subtle wear or discolouration inside the barrel from repeated insert of hot iron rods.

These compact brass items function as sculptural historical accents when displayed on bookshelves, mantelpieces, or console tables within period or contemporary settings.

Maintain historical brass by dusting regularly with a soft microfibre cloth and avoiding harsh chemical cleansers that strip away original surface patination.
