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.

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.

Folio stands, also known as print racks or portfolio stands, emerged in the late 18th and early 19th centuries during the Georgian period to display and store large architectural drawings, prints, maps, and unbound folios in private libraries and gentlemans studies.

Traditional Georgian and Regency folio stands were typically constructed from solid mahogany or rosewood, featuring hinged slatted frames, hand-turned spindles, carved legs, and brass castors for mobility.

Authentic period pieces display hand-cut joinery, original brass hardware or castors, natural operational wear on contact points, period-appropriate timber grain patterns, and hand-carved decorative details on the frame and legs.

In contemporary settings, a folio stand functions effectively in a study, living room, or hallway as a holder for oversized art books, magazines, or framed prints, serving as a functional architectural focal point.

Maintain the timber by dusting regularly with a soft cloth, applying a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year, avoiding direct sunlight, and keeping the piece away from heat sources to prevent timber movement.
