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

Settles originated as high-backed wooden benches with arms and enclosed bases, historically used in halls and taverns to block drafts and retain heat from hearths.

Traditional settles are typically constructed from native hardwoods such as oak, elm, ash, or fruitwood, often featuring pegged mortise and tenon joints and upholstered or panelled backs.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-turned elements, tool marks, patination consistent with age, and traditional joinery without modern metal fasteners.

An antique settle provides strong vertical lines and can be used in a hallway, kitchen diner, or living space, softened with cushions or sheepskins to balance its historical weight.

Maintain antique wood by keeping it away from direct heat sources and sunlight, and periodically nourish the surface with traditional beeswax rather than modern silicon polishes.
