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.
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 box settle served a dual purpose in historic homes, offering communal seating alongside an enclosed chest compartment for essential storage. The high backrest was specifically designed to shield sitters from draughts in unheated rooms and near open fireplaces.

These benches were predominantly constructed from slow-grown European pine, featuring hand-planed tongue-and-groove or vertical back panels. Framing typically utilised mortise and tenon joinery secured with wooden pegs, while the lift-up seats functioned via simple iron strap hinges.

Authentic period settles display hand-cut joinery, irregular tool marks, and natural wear patterns consistent with age, particularly on the armrests and seat. Look for historic wax or paint remnants in crevices and hand-forged iron hardware on the interior storage lid.

Position the settle in an entryway, hallway, or boot room to provide functional seating and concealed storage. Pair the warm timber tones with neutral linen cushions or woven wool throws to soften the structured wooden silhouette.

Dust the timber regularly with a soft, dry cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax paste once or twice a year to maintain the wood. Keep the item away from direct heat sources and excessive moisture to prevent warping or splitting of the pine panels.
