FAQs

Tunbridge Ware is a style of decorative timber mosaic marquetry produced primarily in and around Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells in Kent during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The technique involves bundling thin strips of variously coloured woods together in a pattern, gluing them, and slicing them crosswise to create intricate tessellated designs.

Makers utilized naturally coloured native British timbers such as holly, sycamore, Yew, oak, plum, and laburnum rather than artificial dyes. Veneers of exotic woods like rosewood and mahogany often provided the primary structural body and dark framing elements.

Authentic pieces feature end-grain wood mosaic inlays with fine, geometric, floral, or topographical patterns rather than painted details. Look for construction features like glued veneer joints, natural timber colour variations, and typical Victorian forms such as sewing baskets, stamp boxes, and writing slopes.

A small decorative wooden basket functions effectively as a focal point on a console, sideboard, or mantelpiece. It can be displayed empty to highlight the detailed marquetry work or used to hold small items in a hallway or library setting.

Keep wooden objects away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent shrinkage, cracking, or fading of the timber mosaic. Dust gently with a dry, soft microfibre cloth and avoid using harsh chemical sprays or water.
