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

Arts and Crafts furniture from the early 20th century emphasises honest construction, structural simplicity, and minimal applied ornament. Pieces feature unadorned surfaces, straight lines, and functional visible joinery such as exposed mortise and tenon joints.

Bookcases from this period were crafted from solid hardwoods, primarily native oak. Construction frequently utilized hand-cut joinery, including keyed or wedge tenons, slotted shelf supports, and solid timber side panels designed to withstand substantial weight.

Authentic pieces exhibit visible structural elements like wedge pegs or exposed tenons passing through side uprights. Look for original dark stains, quarter-sawn oak grain patterns, plain unvarnished shelf undersides, and construction without modern screws or synthetic adhesives.

Position the bookcase against neutral or pale walls to contrast with the dark oak finish. Balance the shelves with contemporary ceramics, stacked art volumes, and glass objects to lighten the visual density of the solid timber.

Clean surfaces regularly with a dry, soft cloth to remove dust. Apply a dedicated beeswax polish once or twice a year along the direction of the wood grain, and position the piece away from direct heat sources to avoid timber shrinkage.
