FAQs

A wainscot armchair originates from the 16th and 17th centuries, constructed primarily from oak using panel-framing techniques similar to wall panelling.

These chairs are typically made from solid English oak, joined using traditional mortise and tenon joints secured with wooden pegs, often featuring hand-carved ornamentation.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-appropriate tool marks, hand-cut peg joints, natural timber shrinkage, oxidisation, and construction methods consistent with seventeenth-century joinery.

Pairing this historic seating with minimalist modern architecture or neutral surroundings creates a striking focal point that highlights the rich texture of the aged oak.

Maintain antique oak by keeping it away from direct sunlight and heat sources, and treat the wood periodically with traditional beeswax to nourish the finish.
