Delivery Terms

WE OFFER FREE DELIVERY TO ENGLAND, WALES, AND SCOTLAND (BELOW PERTH)

Shipping /delivery is equally as important to us as the item of furniture itself. It is simple; we deliver everything personally in England / Wales so this way we are 100% sure that the item / furniture reaches our customers safe and sound. We NEVER use couriers. Delivery is generally within 7-14 days of purchase. We guarantee delivery anywhere in England / Wales within 21 days of purchase.

Deliveries to Scotland as far north as Perth are guaranteed within 6 weeks of purchase. If delivery is required above Perth in Scotland please contact James on 07957 392 074 or

james@davidhuntantiques.com for a price.

Deliveries are either carried out by David or James as one member of the team is required to stay in the warehouse, therefore we do require assistance from the van into your hallway with the item of furniture. We have set delivery days and once the van is loaded (a day prior to delivery) David will call customers to arrange a two hour delivery time slot. Customers will also receive a text when delivery is 30 minutes away.

It is really helpful if customers can provide their ‘what3words’ location to make delivery as smooth

as possible, especially properties in rural locations.

Ireland Deliveries

We do use a very good courier company called DVM Service to deliver goods to Ireland. We ask the customer to pay this company direct for the delivery charge and we then liaise with DVM regarding collection of a customer’s item of furniture to be shipped to Ireland.

Europe & Rest of the World

We do not ship to Europe or the Rest of the World.

A box settle is a traditional wooden seating unit featuring a high back, solid arms, and a hinged seat that lifts to reveal a storage compartment underneath, widely used in hallways and kitchens to draught-proof rooms.

These benches were typically constructed from solid regional timbers such as pine, oak, or elm, joined using traditional mortise and tenon joinery and finished with natural wax.

Authentication involves examining hand-cut joints, traditional hand-planed surfaces, period-appropriate hardware like iron hinges, and natural timber oxidisation and wear consistent with age.

A wooden settle functions effectively placed against a hallway wall or in a large kitchen, styled with simple linen cushions to balance its substantial wooden mass.

Maintenance requires regular application of beeswax to nourish the timber, avoiding direct sunlight, and keeping the piece away from central heating sources to prevent wood splitting.
