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.
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.

During the initial decades of flight, propellers were engineered from solid or laminated timber to provide the necessary flexibility and structural integrity for early aviation. These components were carefully carved to aerodynamically convert engine torque into forward thrust.

Craftsmen primarily used dense hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, oak, and maple. Multiple layers of timber were often glued together under pressure to prevent warping caused by moisture and atmospheric changes.

Authentic period propellers feature central hub mounting apertures, manufacturer stampings, pitch specifications, and natural timber oxidisation. Look for precise lamination lines and historical operational wear around the hub area.

A wooden airscrew works well as a statement sculptural wall accent in Industrial Loft or Gentlemans Library interiors. Position it horizontally or diagonally above a mantlepiece, console table, or sideboard to emphasise its length and curves.

Keep the timber away from direct heat sources and high humidity to avoid warping or cracking. Dust regularly with a soft cloth and apply a clear beeswax polish annually to preserve the patinated finish.
