FAQs

Nineteenth-century giltwood stools typically draw inspiration from earlier Rococo and Baroque periods, featuring ornate carved ornamentation covered in a thin layer of gold leaf.

These pieces are traditionally constructed from hardwoods such as beech or pine, intricately hand-carved, gessoed, and gilded with gold leaf before being traditionally upholstered.

Authentic items show signs of age in the gilding, such as minor craquelure, oxidisation of the underlying gesso, and hand-cut joinery consistent with nineteenth-century craftsmanship.

They make striking accent pieces when used as vanity seating, placed beside a fireplace, or positioned at the foot of a bed to introduce classical texture and metallic warmth.

Giltwood requires gentle dusting with a soft, dry cloth and should be kept away from direct sunlight and high humidity to prevent the fragile gold leaf and gesso from flaking.
