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.

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

A settle is a traditional wooden bench with high backs and arms, originating in medieval times and remaining popular through the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries to block cold draughts in domestic interiors.

Authentic pieces typically feature pegged mortise and tenon joinery, fielded or raised wooden panelling, and solid oak construction showing tool marks from hand-planing.

Authentication relies on examining timber shrinkage, hand-cut joints, period-appropriate fixings, and natural patination and wear accumulated over centuries of use.

An antique settle serves as functional seating in hallways, kitchens, or living spaces, often softened with contemporary textiles or traditional cushions to balance historic weight.

Preservation involves maintaining stable indoor humidity levels, avoiding direct sunlight, and occasionally applying microcrystalline wax to nourish and protect the wooden surface.
