Dealers Notes

I can arrange delivery to you, whether you are within the UK or require an international delivery service, please do get in touch…as a mainland UK guide, a delivery for something around the size of a chest of drawers within approx 150 miles will be £75 to you, but if you if you are in Scotland, Wales, Ireland or Cornwall please get in touch to confirm delivery costs!

Based in Uppingham, Rutland…having been in the business for 25 years focusing on mostly French and English decorative antiques and interiors from the 18th to the early 20th century, hopefully a collection you will enjoy browsing and hopefully re home some of my finds!

Viewing here in Uppingham is very welcome in my spacious barn studio but also I have a showroom based within the Uppingham Antiques Centre, which is well worth a visit and have a good lunch in town too!

Any queries about anything you have seen or about delivery, don't hesitate to get in touch.

FAQs

The William IV period, bridging the Regency and Victorian eras from 1830 to 1837, is characterised by robust classical forms, rich mahogany timber, and bold architectural motifs such as fluting and reeding.

19th-century bookends were frequently crafted from dense hardwoods like mahogany, walnut, or oak, often finished with beeswax to highlight the timber grain and weighted to secure heavy volumes.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-carved architectural detailing, natural timber oxidisation, subtle surface patination, and period-appropriate construction methods rather than modern machine precision.

Position a pair on a contemporary bookshelf, home office desk, or mantelpiece to introduce structure, warm timber tones, and historical depth alongside modern literature.

Dust regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish periodically, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners and direct sunlight to protect the original finish.
