FAQs

Chippendale furniture, named after the eighteenth-century cabinetmaker Thomas Chippendale, is defined by formal Georgian proportions, the use of high-quality dense mahogany, elegant bracket feet, and refined cast brass hardware.

Eighteenth-century chests of drawers were typically constructed from solid and veneered mahogany, featuring pine or oak secondary woods for drawer linings, along with cast brass handles and steel lock mechanisms.

Authentic pieces feature hand-cut dovetail joinery with uneven spacing, hand-sawn secondary timber markings on drawer bases, original cast brass hardware showing gentle oxidisation, and period-correct construction along the feet and backboards.

A classic mahogany chest serves as a grounding focal point in a modern hallway or bedroom, pairing effectively with minimal contemporary art, neutral wall tones, and modern lighting fixtures.

Maintain mahogany furniture by dusting regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and applying a high-grade beeswax polish once or twice a year. Keep the piece away from direct sunlight and central heating sources to prevent timber movement.
