Georgian furniture we categorise as made in the period 1714-1800, Regency furniture 1800-1830, William IV furniture 1830-1840 , Victorian furniture 1840-1900, and Edwardian furniture 1901-1920. We understand that there is overlapping of monarchs but it is difficult to precisely put styles to each monarch.

Our English antique furniture is selected to the quality we would wish for if it was for our own private use. We only have 1 buyer who has over 30 years experience of selecting the right design and best quality to sell under the Hingstons of Wilton antique shop banner. That enables any purchaser of antiques to have the confidence that they are indeed buying the antique to the correct quality of finish and timber chosen when the antique was first made.

Many antique dealers have trusted our selection for them over the past 3 decades and have returned time again to purchase other antique pieces for their showrooms to sell to their private clients, be it in North America, Japan , South Africa, Australia, Germany, France, Belgium, Spain, Italy and many other countries throughout the world.

Here in the UK we have many of our own private clients, UK based antique dealers and interior decorators purchasing antique furniture to suit their needs, In fact they have been regular customers of our antiques for so long that they now bring their children to also buy antique furniture from our antique shop.

Antiques are green and so purchasing a piece of antique furniture is the oldest form of recycling there could be. You don't have to replace antique furniture every other year ,but just enjoy a thing of beauty that is dependable ,solid and of a quality that will last forever.

We are happy to call and purchase any antiques you wish to sell. We regularly call in Southampton, Bournemouth, Poole, Romsey, Winchester, Andover, Sherborne, Dorchester, Ringwood, Stockbridge and Warminster to purchase antiques. Hampshire, Dorset, Somerset, and Devon are close to us but we are happy to travel far and wide to buy antiques. If it is full estates of antiques or just single items of antique furniture we will be happy to help.
