Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

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.

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

French provincial benches from the late 19th century were typically crafted for practical daily use in country homes, featuring utilitarian trestle bases, clean lines, and local hardwoods like cherrywood or oak.

Cherrywood was favoured in French cabinetmaking for its fine grain, smooth finish, and durable nature, which develops a rich warm patina over time through natural exposure and polishing.

Authentic pieces generally show signs of hand-planed construction, pegged joinery, natural wear along the edges, and slight structural variations consistent with age and manual craftsmanship.

Long wooden benches function well alongside contemporary dining tables, within wide hallways, or placed at the base of a bed to add warm timber tones and functional seating.

Regular dusting with a soft cloth and occasional applications of natural beeswax help preserve the timbers finish and protect the surface from drying out.
