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

A Suffolk spindle-back chair is a regional variation of traditional English vernacular seating, characterised by slender turned spindles arranged fan-like or upright within the backrest frame and fitted with a woven rush seat.

These chairs were predominantly crafted from regional English hardwoods such as ash, fruitwood, or elm, paired with hand-woven natural rush or reed seating surfaces.

Authentic examples feature hand-turned spindle work, natural wear on stretchers from historical foot placement, timber joinery secured with wood pegs, and texture variations across the rush seat.

Position a single spindle-back chair as an occasional accent piece beside a side table, or group several around an oak table to create a balanced blend of traditional and contemporary elements.

Keep the wood conditioned using natural beeswax applied along the grain, and clean the rush seat gently with a soft brush or vacuum attachment while avoiding excessive moisture.
