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 bobbin turned settee is a timber seat characterised by spool-turned or lathe-turned wooden elements along its frame, legs, and stretchers, a technique popularized during the 17th and 19th centuries.

These seating pieces are typically constructed from solid hardwoods such as oak or walnut, featuring traditional mortise and tenon joinery alongside upholstered seat and back panels.

Authentic period examples feature slight variations in the hand-turned wooden spools, original brass castors, pegged joints, and natural age patina on the timber surfaces.

A bobbin settee is placed in entrance hallways, living spaces, or bedroom footings to add structural timber detailing and contrast with modern minimalist decor.

Dust the turned wood frame regularly with a soft brush, apply a light coat of natural beeswax polish annually, and position the piece away from direct heat sources to prevent timber shrinkage.
