FAQs

The Regency style, spanning the late 18th to early 19th century in Britain, is characterised by classical proportions, inspired by ancient Greek and Roman designs, often featuring clean lines balanced with rich timber veneers.

Master cabinetmakers predominantly utilised solid mahogany and flame mahogany veneers, often incorporating secondary timbers such as oak or pine for internal carcases and shelving.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit period construction methods including hand-cut dovetailing, traditional timber shrinkage patterns, patination consistent with age, and original brass or iron hardware.

Position the piece against a neutral wall in a study or living area, balancing the shelving with a curated mix of leather-bound volumes, ceramics, and minimal decorative objects to prevent visual clutter.

Maintain the timber by keeping the piece away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dusting regularly with a dry lint-free cloth, and applying occasional traditional beeswax to nourish the finish.
