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.

Cataloguer’s note

Written by Sellingantiques from the dealer’s photographs and listing
  • Period19th century
  • SizeH 28 cm (11 in) x W 50.6 cm (20 in) x D 25.2 cm (10 in)

This 19th-century prayer stool originates from an ecclesiastical setting and exhibits a simple, traditional style. The timber displays a warm dark brown tone with a polished, reflective finish, showing light surface wear consistent with age, including a small mark on the top surface. The piece is constructed from dark wood with exposed through-wedged mortice and tenon joinery, standing on shaped upright supports with curved cutouts at the base. Measuring 28 cm high, 50.6 cm wide, and 25.2 cm deep, this compact footstool fits easily into domestic spaces. In a contemporary home, this item serves well as a low footstool beside a fireside armchair, as a subtle decorative ledge for displaying small ornaments in a hallway, or as a functional stool in a bedroom or study. Its unpretentious character allows it to blend naturally with both traditional and minimalist interior settings while offering a tangible connection to historic craftsmanship.
