Hingstons Antiques, Salisbury

My wife and I were looking to enhance the Edwardian character of our house and having recently spent some time obtaining a suitable mahogany wardrobe and chest of drawers, we were struggling to find a complementary set of bedside cabinets. We found the perfect set of mahogany chests at Hingstons of Wilton, but we have always been wary of buying antiques unseen, as descriptions and photographs don't always match the reality. However, after discussing the condition of the chests with Nick Hingston, he was so passionate about the quality of the chests that he put our minds at rest. The transaction, communication and delivery, by specialist couriers, went seamlessly and the chests were as exactly as described, and were quality antiques. We are delighted with our purchase and will certainly bear Hingstons in mind for any future purchases, without the apprehension of goods not being as described. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

The best antique shop in the UK. I came accross Hingstons of Wilton antiques by the internet. On their website I have found immediately the perfect dining table I was looking for for a long time. I contacted Mr. Hingston (Nick) and straight from the beginning I had a very good feeling. It felt as we knew eachother for a long time. He gave very good and honest advice. He wasn't pushy at all. A real antique expert and professional. He saved no effort at all to send me emails, pictures and additional information. When I finally decided to buy the table I paid a deposit. A couple of days later I received a beautiful 'Thank You' card in my letterbox. This was a proof that he was a very decent man. His restorationwork is amazing. I asked for some extra gleam and he searched for the best polisher to do the job. Throughout the entire overseas buyingprocess the communication was very smooth and quick. The delivery was quick and the table arrived in perfect condition. Upon arrival the table was even more beautiful than imagined. I sincerely can recommend Hingston of Wilton antiques. In the past I have bought other antiques all over Europe but I have never had such a good expercience as with Mr. Hingston. I will definitely buy again at Hingstons of Wilton. Amazing collection - good quality and reasonable and correct prices. A must do - a must visit!
