The George II period spans from 1727 to 1760, characterised by a transition from heavy walnut to rich mahogany, featuring sturdy proportions, architectural mouldings, and classical detailing.

Authentic pieces from this era were typically constructed from solid mahogany or oak secondary woods, featuring hand-cut dovetail joints on the drawers and pegged mortise and tenon frames.

Authenticity is determined by examining hand-planed drawer linings, irregular dovetails, period-appropriate brass hardware, original timber shrinkage, and natural oxidisation patterns.

Pair this piece with minimalist contemporary decor to create a striking contrast, using the rich dark wood tones to anchor a neutral room alongside clean-lined upholstery.

Maintain antique wood by keeping it away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dusting regularly with a dry cloth, and occasionally applying traditional beeswax to nourish the finish.
