Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

FAQs

French provincial benches from this era typically feature utilitarian construction designed for rural life, incorporating local hardwoods such as elm or oak with trestle or bracketed leg supports.

These pieces are constructed from solid elm timber, chosen for its durability and distinct grain pattern, featuring traditional joinery such as pegged mortise and tenon joints and heavy trestle support bases.

Authentic pieces display natural wear along the seat edges, original pegged joinery, hand-planed surface textures, and a mature surface patina developed over decades of use.

Benches can be paired with a dining table to create flexible seating, placed along an entryway or hallway, or positioned at the foot of a bed to add natural wood texture to modern spaces.

Dust regularly with a soft cloth and apply a high-quality wax polish periodically to nourish the timber, keeping the furniture away from direct heat sources to prevent movement in the wood.
