These sit on a deep oak plinth which is arched to the front. Altogether loving looking pieces.

Billy Hunt and Co is located on a large Victorian farm just a short country drive from the Rangemore village, a designated conservation area, which was built by Michael Thomas Bass in the 1850s to house the Bass Rangemore Estate workers consisting mainly of Victorian redbrick cottages and the occasional barn.

Our home is a classic Victorian designed and well equipped late 19th century 2 story red brick built barn of some 4000 sq feet nestled in classic English countryside, which enjoyed a careful full renovation in 2000. The estate still benefits being managed in the traditional manner with an Estate Manger, estate carpenter, gardeners etc. A rather delightful place to have as our work space.

Martina, there is no Billy at Billy hunt, has led the team since 2103 and is an interior designer qualified from The Inchbald School of Design London whose previous working life included such clients as Vertu, Aston Martin and Johnnie Walker to name a few.

Please do not hesitate to call or email if you have any questions on the pieces that may interest you - Many thanks Martina

Archival Detail
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.
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.

During the 1930s, English furniture design featured functional, streamlined forms with solid oak construction, geometric panelled details, and glazed doors designed to display literature and decorative objects.

Cabinets from this era were typically constructed using solid English oak, mortise and tenon joinery, glass panes secured with wooden glazing bars, and internal timber shelving.

Authentic 1930s pieces often exhibit quarter-sawn oak grain patterns, period-correct metal fittings, simple bracket feet, and an established patina along the timber edges.

Positioning a matching pair symmetrically on either side of a fireplace or central wall creates balance, while styling the interior shelves with a mix of curated books and ceramics blends historic craftsmanship with modern aesthetics.

Maintain solid oak by dusting regularly with a dry cloth and applying beeswax polish annually, while cleaning glass panes with a specialist cleaner applied directly to a microfibre cloth.
