The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A wainscot armchair is a type of heavy, solid wood chair featuring a panelled backrest, wide armrests, and turned legs, originating in 16th and 17th-century Britain and Europe.

17th-century chairs were primarily crafted from native oak using mortise and tenon joinery secured with wooden pegs, rather than metal nails or modern adhesives.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-planed surfaces, irregular turned details, pegged joints that often project slightly from shrinkage, and authentic surface patination.

Position the piece as a standalone accent chair in an entryway, study, or living space to create a strong textural contrast against contemporary walls and modern soft furnishings.

Keep the wood preserved by dusting regularly with a dry cloth, applying a high-grade beeswax polish once or twice per year, and keeping the item clear of direct heat sources.
