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.

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

Mid-18th century Georgian stools typically exhibit cabriole legs, carved knee decoration such as shell or acanthus motifs, and serpentine or shaped seat rails, heavily influenced by the designs of Thomas Chippendale and George II period craftsmanship.

Primary construction utilised dense timbers such as Cuban mahogany or walnut, constructed with mortise and tenon joints, internal beech or pine corner blocks, and traditional webbed horsehair upholstery.

Authentic pieces display hand-sawn timber rails, hand-cut joinery, natural oxidisation on unpolished under-surfaces, and fluid, hand-carved details on the leg knees rather than machine-moulded ornament.

An antique stool functions effectively at the foot of a bed, beside a fireplace hearth, or as an accent seat paired with a dressing table or reading armchair in contemporary schemes.

Keep the piece away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent timber shrinkage or fabric fading, apply natural beeswax sparingly to the mahogany, and clean upholstery gently with a soft brush attachment.
