FAQs

Charles II style furniture, originating from the late 17th-century Restoration period, typically features elaborate carved woodwork, scroll arms, turned legs, and high backs designed to project status and provide comfort.

These pieces were traditionally constructed using native hardwoods such as oak or walnut for the exposed frame, combined with horsehair stuffing, linen webbing, and natural textile coverings.

Authentication involves examining timber ageing, tool marks, joinery techniques, and the type of fixings used, as 19th-century revival pieces often utilise machine-sawn timber and later fastening methods alongside period styling.

Pairing a traditional high-backed armchair with minimalist modern furniture creates a striking contrast, allowing the historic craftsmanship to serve as a focal point in the room.

Preservation requires keeping the piece away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent wood cracking and fabric fading, alongside gentle vacuuming of the upholstery and periodic waxing of exposed timber.
