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

A wainscot settle is a wooden bench characterised by a high panelled backrest resembling architectural wall panelling, often constructed with a hinged seat concealing an integrated storage compartment.

These benches were predominantly constructed from solid English oak using mortise and tenon joinery held together with wooden pegs, incorporating hand-carved relief panels and hand-forged iron hinges.

Authentic pieces feature signs of hand-planed timber, irregular peg placement, original hand-carved motifs, historic iron hardware, and genuine dark patination across unexposed structural elements.

A carved oak settle functions effectively in entrance halls or wide corridors, providing architectural presence and textural contrast when placed against neutral modern walls.

Dust the timber regularly with a soft cloth and apply clear beeswax sparingly once or twice a year, ensuring the piece is kept away from direct heat sources to prevent wood movement.
