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.

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

Faux bois, meaning false wood, originated in France during the 19th century, incorporating cast iron or concrete rendered to imitate natural tree branches and timber textures.

These benches typically feature heavy cast iron or forged iron supports moulded into organic, branch-like forms paired with durable solid hardwoods such as elm or oak for the seat and backrest.

Authentic 19th and early 20th-century pieces display detailed casting marks, hand-carved wood grain elements, natural surface wear, and heavy, solid construction rather than lightweight hollow modern reproductions.

A faux bois bench functions effectively in an entry hallway, conservatory, or boot room, introducing organic textural contrast when paired with contemporary plaster walls or stone flooring.

Keep the wood nourished with appropriate exterior oils or waxes, inspect the iron elements for active oxidisation, and store or cover the piece during severe weather conditions to prevent degradation.
