FAQs

A wainscot chair is a heavy, wooden armchair popular in the 16th and 17th centuries, constructed using panel-framing techniques similar to wall wainscoting.

These chairs are traditionally built from solid English oak, utilising mortise and tenon joints, pegged construction, and intricate hand-carved panels.

Authenticity is determined by examining timber shrinkage, hand-cut joinery marks, iron or wooden pegs, and the natural oxidisation of the oak over centuries.

It functions effectively as a statement piece in a hallway or study, providing strong architectural contrast against neutral walls and minimalist furnishings.

Maintain the wood by keeping it away from direct sunlight and heat sources, and periodically applying microcrystalline wax to nourish the finish.
