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.

A panelled oak settle is a high-backed wooden bench, often featuring carved upper friezes and mortise-and-tenon joinery, designed during the 17th century to provide seating while shielding occupants from draughts in early English homes.

They were crafted primarily using native English oak, assembled with pegged mortise-and-tenon joints, framed panels, and hand-turned baluster legs connected by low stretchers for stability.

Authentic period pieces exhibit irregular hand-planed surfaces, hand-carved decorative motifs such as lunettes or foliage, pegged joints without modern screws, and genuine dark patination in crevices and under the seat.

A period oak settle creates a striking focal point in a hallway, entryway, or boot room, where it can be contrasted against clean neutral walls and paired with contemporary textiles or floor coverings.

Maintain the timber by dusting regularly with a soft cloth and applying a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year, keeping the piece away from direct heat sources to prevent cracking.
