FAQs

Victorian furniture encompasses styles produced during the reign of Queen Victoria (18371901), often characterised by substantial proportions, rich timber selections such as mahogany and walnut, and meticulous craftsmanship.

These pieces typically feature solid timber frames with decorative veneers like burr walnut, joined using traditional dovetail construction on the drawers and finished with turned wooden knobs and brass escutcheons.

Authenticity is determined by examining hand-cut dovetails, secondary timbers used inside the drawers, historical wear patterns, hand-turned elements, and the presence of period-appropriate fixings and locks.

Pairing antique walnut chests with contemporary neutral walls, minimalist lighting, and clean-lined upholstery creates a balanced aesthetic that highlights the rich grain and warm tone of the wood.

Maintain antique wooden surfaces by keeping them away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dusting regularly with a soft dry cloth, and occasionally applying appropriate natural beeswax to nourish the timber.
