Collapsible content

Are your antiques authentic?

Yes. All pieces are genuine vintage or antique items sourced individually. Age-related wear is expected and described honestly in each listing.

What condition should I expect from antique furniture?

Antiques often show signs of age such as surface wear, small marks, or minor repairs. These details form part of the character and history of the piece and will be noted in the description.

Do you offer delivery for antique furniture?

Yes. Delivery options are available across the UK. Larger pieces may be shipped via specialist couriers to ensure safe transport.

Can I return an antique item?

Returns are accepted in line with our shop policies. Please review the returns information before purchasing or contact us if you have questions.

Can I reserve an item?

Occasionally we can hold items for a short period. Please get in touch if you would like to reserve a piece.

Will antique furniture work in a modern home?

Yes. Antique pieces often work beautifully in contemporary interiors, where they act as characterful statement pieces against simpler modern surroundings. A single antique chair, mirror or candlestick can add depth, craftsmanship and historical texture to a room while balancing more minimal or modern furniture.
