FAQs

The Georgian style spans the reigns of the four British monarchs named George from 1714 to 1830, characterised by a transition from heavy walnut designs to the refined use of imported Cuban mahogany, featuring classical proportions and restrained ornamentation.

Cabinetmakers of this era primarily utilised dense Cuban mahogany and satinwood stringing, employing traditional hand-cut dovetail joints for drawer construction and solid brass hardware for pulls and escutcheons.

Authenticity is determined by examining the hand-planed secondary timbers on drawer linings, hand-forged or cast brass fixtures, natural timber patination, and the presence of hand-cut dovetailing rather than modern mechanical fixings.

Pair the rich wood tones with neutral walls and minimalist modern lighting to create a balanced contrast that highlights the historic craftsmanship while fitting seamlessly into a modern layout.

Protect the timber by keeping it out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources, applying a traditional beeswax polish periodically to nourish the wood and maintain its natural lustre without using modern silicone sprays.
