FAQs

Georgian armchairs are characterised by classical proportions, refined craftsmanship, and the use of dense hardwoods such as mahogany, often featuring intricate back splats and sturdy H-stretchers.

These chairs typically utilise solid mahogany frames joined with mortise and tenon construction, traditionally upholstered seats with horsehair stuffing, and hand-applied brass tack detailing.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut joinery, natural patina on the wood surface, tool marks indicative of manual woodworking, and wear consistent with age rather than artificial distress.

Pairing a period wooden armchair with a minimalist contemporary dining table creates a striking contrast that highlights the craftsmanship of the antique while maintaining a balanced, layered aesthetic.

Maintain stable indoor humidity levels away from direct sunlight and heat sources, occasionally treating the wood with microcrystalline wax and conditioning antique leather to prevent cracking.
