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

The settle is a traditional wooden bench with high backs and arms, originating in medieval times and evolving through the 17th century to provide draught-proof seating in communal halls and farmhouses.

These pieces were typically constructed from solid English oak using traditional joinery techniques such as mortise and tenon joints, pegged frames, and panelled construction without metal screws.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-carved details, timber shrinkage, historical tool marks, hand-beaten iron or wooden fixings, and natural patina developed through centuries of use.

Pair the historical piece with minimalist walls and soft linen cushions to create a striking textural contrast in contemporary hallways, kitchens, or living spaces.

Maintain antique oak by keeping it away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight, and nourish the timber periodically with natural beeswax to preserve the finish.
