FAQs

The bergere originated in France during the early 18th century as an evolution of the enclosed upholstered armchair, characterised by its enclosed sides and loose seat cushion.

Traditional construction typically involves a solid hardwood frame, such as walnut or beech, featuring hand-woven cane panels on the back and sides, complemented by mortise and tenon joinery.

Authentic period pieces display traditional hand-carved detailing, aged patination on the timber, hand-woven natural cane with minor irregularities, and traditional joinery methods free from modern fixings.

Pairing these classical chairs with minimalist modern tables or contemporary textiles creates a balanced contrast that highlights the intricate woodwork and textural cane detailing.

Preservation requires maintaining moderate indoor humidity levels to prevent the cane from drying and cracking, cleaning gently with a soft brush, and nourishing the wood frame with appropriate beeswax.
