FAQs

The aumrie, or almry, has roots in medieval Scotland and Northern England, traditionally used for storing food, utensils, and valuable household items before becoming a staple piece of regional domestic furniture.

These pieces were typically constructed from solid native timber such as Scots pine, featuring hand-planed panels, pegged mortise and tenon joints, and traditional wrought iron or brass hardware.

Authenticity is identified through period-appropriate tool marks, hand-blown glass or solid timber panels, period hinges and locks, and natural historic patina and paint layers accumulated over generations.

An antique press serves as a focal storage solution in a contemporary kitchen, dining room, or hallway, contrasting clean modern lines with rich historical texture and warmth.

Preservation requires maintaining stable indoor humidity levels, avoiding direct sunlight to protect the painted finish, and applying traditional beeswax sparingly to nourish the timber.
