FAQs

Elm was frequently selected for kitchen and country furniture during the 19th century due to its tough, interlocking grain which resists splitting under heavy daily use.

These pieces typically utilise solid elm for frames and seats, often employing traditional mortise and tenon joinery alongside hand-turned or shaped components.

Authentic items display period-correct tool marks, natural timber shrinkage, oxidisation, and traditional joinery methods rather than modern metal fixings.

Pairing antique timber seating with a minimalist or contemporary table creates a balanced contrast that highlights the natural grain and historical character.

Maintain antique wood by keeping it away from direct heat sources and strong sunlight, applying occasional microcrystalline wax to nourish the surface.
