A super rare find, this piece came to me in rather shocking condition, it has been fully restored to include having numerous timber issues resolved, it’s then been stripped back and traditionally French polished, the end result is a rare collectable one of a kind door in ready to fit condition

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.

This circa 1920 Arts and Crafts front or back door follows the English Country House style in warm brown oak, lead and glass. The exterior displays a fully restored timber construction with an adzed oak surface texture, a top section of leaded glass panes divided by metal cames, a central letterbox slot, and a solid wood lower panel with raised grain detailing. The French polished finish highlights the natural figure of the wood, and the piece has no attached hardware. Measuring 196 cm high, 80 cm wide and 4.5 cm deep, this architectural element suits installation as an exterior entrance or interior room divider in a period property or country cottage. Suitable for residential placement as a functional entrance door or a decorative architectural feature, this item provides an authentic period accent. The restored structure accommodates standard hardware selection for hanging in a timber door frame. Maintenance involves routine dusting and periodic care suited to traditional French polished wooden surfaces.

FAQs

Arts and Crafts joinery emphasizes visible construction techniques, solid native hardwoods like English oak, and hand-finished surfaces such as adzing. The movement rejected mass industrial production in favour of traditional craftsmanship and structural integrity.

Doors from this era were typically constructed using seasoned solid oak held together with mortise and tenon joints. Upper glazed panels utilized individual glass panes held in place by hand-cut lead cames.

Authentic pieces feature the distinctive hand-adzed surface texture created with an adze tool, along with traditional jointing methods. Most items also feature a carved high-relief mouse, though architectural fittings occasionally omit this or place it discreetly.

An antique external door can be installed as a primary entrance for a period property, or adapted internally as a pantry, cellar, or feature room door. Its warm wood tone and historical texture provide visual balance against modern minimalist backdrops.

Keep the wood nourished using a high-quality beeswax polish applied along the grain. For external installations, ensure the timber is sealed against moisture while preserving the natural patina, and clean the leaded glass gently using neutral soapy water.
