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.

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.

Originally created in the late 18th century and popularised during the Victorian era, a Canterbury is a low, open-topped wooden stand featuring vertical dividers designed to store sheet music, bound volumes, or periodicals.

Victorian Canterburys were typically crafted from fine hardwoods such as walnut, mahogany, or rosewood, often featuring figured timber veneers, lathe-turned spindles, decorative finials, and a lower drawer set upon brass castors.

Authentic 19th-century examples exhibit period hand-craftsmanship, including hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, original brass or ceramic castors, natural timber age oxidisation, and intricate turned spindle uprights.

A Victorian Canterbury serves as a functional magazine rack, fireside book holder, or side table accent in living rooms, studies, or reading nooks, adding architectural texture to contemporary spaces.

Maintain the original timber patina by dusting regularly with a soft cloth and applying a clear beeswax polish once or twice per year, ensuring the piece is kept away from direct heat sources to prevent wood movement.
