An Original Victorian Painted Grey Antique /Old Pine 4 Seater Box Settle / Bench

19th century
Description

This bench is in good condition. We have professionally restored it and painted it in a lovely grey paint and rubbed over the edges giving it a stunning patina.

This bench would look well in an old or modern property in any room for seating purposes. It would look great in a hallway etc or to the one side of a large table. It could comfortably seat 3 to 4 people.

The bench stands on lovely plain upright legs supporting the main section and beautifully shaped to the top. There are panelled sides. The back rest is also panelled with three turned columns to the middle and small pretty section above the columns. There is a lift up lid with plenty of storage space beneath. You could have a cushion pad made in an upholstery of your choice.

The height is 95cm, the seat height is 47cm, the width is 200cm and the depth is 55cm.

Delivery Terms

WE OFFER FREE DELIVERY TO ENGLAND, WALES, AND SCOTLAND (BELOW PERTH)

Shipping /delivery is equally as important to us as the item of furniture itself. It is simple; we deliver everything personally in England / Wales so this way we are 100% sure that the item / furniture reaches our customers safe and sound. We NEVER use couriers. Delivery is generally within 7-14 days of purchase. We guarantee delivery anywhere in England / Wales within 21 days of purchase.

Deliveries to Scotland as far north as Perth are guaranteed within 6 weeks of purchase. If delivery is required above Perth in Scotland please contact James on 07957 392 074 or

james@davidhuntantiques.com for a price.

Deliveries are either carried out by David or James as one member of the team is required to stay in the warehouse, therefore we do require assistance from the van into your hallway with the item of furniture. We have set delivery days and once the van is loaded (a day prior to delivery) David will call customers to arrange a two hour delivery time slot. Customers will also receive a text when delivery is 30 minutes away.

It is really helpful if customers can provide their ‘what3words’ location to make delivery as smooth

as possible, especially properties in rural locations.

Ireland Deliveries

We do use a very good courier company called DVM Service to deliver goods to Ireland. We ask the customer to pay this company direct for the delivery charge and we then liaise with DVM regarding collection of a customer’s item of furniture to be shipped to Ireland.

Europe & Rest of the World

We do not ship to Europe or the Rest of the World.

An original Victorian painted grey pine box settle, measuring 95 cm high by 200 cm wide and 55 cm deep. The piece is finished in a grey paint with rubbed edges that reveal the underlying timber, presenting a panelled backrest, three turned spindles to the middle, a shaped crest rail, and panelled sides with plain upright legs. A lift-up lid provides access to a storage space beneath the seat, which is designed to comfortably seat four people. This settle suits a hallway or the side of a large dining table in either a period or modern property. The practical design offers dual utility as both seating and storage for household items, fitting into rustic farmhouse and country interiors. It works well against a wall in a boot room, kitchen, or living space.

A box settle is a long wooden bench characterised by a high back, side armrests, and a hinged seat that opens to reveal a built-in storage compartment beneath.

Victorian settles were commonly constructed from solid softwoods such as pine or hardwoods like oak, constructed with mortise and tenon joinery and finished with oil paint or wax.

Authentic pieces often exhibit hand-planed timber surfaces, original iron hinges, wear to areas of high use, and historic paint layers visible through distressed areas.

A painted settle works well in an entryway, hallway, or boot room, styled with neutral linen seat cushions and positioned alongside natural fibre floor coverings.

Maintain the finish by dusting with a dry microfibre cloth and avoiding abrasive chemical cleaners that could strip historic paint finish or destabilise wood joints.
