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.

  • ObjectChest of Drawers
  • Period19th century
  • StyleNeoclassical / Directoire
  • MaterialMahogany, Marble, Brass
  • ColourWarm Brown
  • MotifsFluted pilasters, Marble top slab, Cast brass hardware, Tapered cylindrical feet

Maintain the piece by dusting with a soft dry cloth, avoiding direct sunlight and excessive humidity fluctuations, feeding the wood periodically with traditional wax, and using coasters or mats to protect the stone surface from acidic liquids.

Pair the architectural timber tones and marble surface with contemporary minimalist artwork, sleek lighting, or simple ceramics to create a balanced focal point that bridges historical character with modern sensibility.

Authenticity is identified through hand-cut dovetail joinery, hand-turned elements, original hardware matching the period, natural timber shrinkage over time, and traditional finishing methods such as shellac french polishing.

These pieces typically feature solid timber frames with rich veneers such as mahogany or walnut, often topped with a polished marble slab and accented with cast brass or bronze mounts, constructed using traditional dovetail joints.

The Directoire style bridges the gap between Louis XVI and Empire periods, characterised by a transition towards more austere, neoclassical designs inspired by ancient Rome and Greece, focusing on clean architectural lines rather than excessive ornamentation.
