FAQs

Early 19th-century seating, spanning the late Georgian and Regency periods, typically features classical proportions, influenced by ancient Greek and Roman designs, transitioning later into the heavier, more ornate forms of the early Victorian era.

These pieces were constructed using solid native timbers such as mahogany, walnut, or oak, featuring traditional joinery like mortise and tenon. Internal padding often utilized natural fibres such as horsehair, secured with hand-tied springs and covered in coarse hessian cloth.

Authenticity is determined by examining the woods patina, hand-cut joinery, tool marks, and the aging of internal stuffing materials like horsehair and webbing. Traditional construction techniques and original fixings, such as handmade tacks or early castors, provide further verification.

An unholstered frame provides raw textural interest and industrial or rustic contrast. It can be integrated into contemporary spaces as a statement piece in its current skeletal state or custom-upholstered in modern fabrics to bridge historical architecture with contemporary minimalist decor.

Preservation involves keeping the timber away from direct sunlight and fluctuating humidity to prevent cracking. Exposed wood should be treated occasionally with microcrystalline wax, while fragile historic textiles like hessian require gentle vacuuming with a mesh screen attachment.
