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.

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

Gustavian settle benches originated in 18th-century Sweden, characterised by symmetrical lines, pale painted finishes, and vertical spindle backrests designed to maximise natural light in northern climates.

These settles were typically constructed from native softwoods such as pine, featuring pegged joinery, hand-turned legs, and multiple layers of chalk or milk paint.

Authentic period pieces display natural layered paint wear revealing underlying timber or earlier paint coats, pegged wood joinery, hand-planed surfaces, and uneven wear patterns consistent with functional age.

A painted settle operates effectively in an entryway, hallway, or positioned beside a dining table, adding architectural structure and muted colour to neutral contemporary spaces.

Dust gently using a dry microfibre cloth without commercial solvents, and maintain stable humidity levels to prevent timber shrinkage and subsequent paint flaking.
