FAQs

Georgian oak furniture spans the eighteenth century and is characterised by sturdy joinery, geometric moulding, and functional proportions. Earlier pieces often retain features from late seventeenth-century design, such as drop handles and moulded drawer fronts.

Chests of drawers from this period were typically constructed from solid native timbers, predominantly English oak, with secondary woods like pine or poplar used for drawer linings. Metal hardware, including brass tear-drop handles and iron locks, provided functional ornamentation.

Authentic period pieces display hand-sawn drawer bottoms, hand-cut dovetail joints, wooden peg fixings, and uneven patination along surfaces. The backs of genuine antique cabinets often feature hand-planed timber boards with visible tool marks.

Dark oak chests contrast effectively against neutral wall treatments and soft linen textiles. Positioning modern artwork or a simple ceramic table lamp on top creates a balanced aesthetic between period craftsmanship and modern minimalist decor.

Apply a high-grade beeswax polish once or twice a year to maintain the wood surface and prevent drying. Keep the furniture away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight to prevent timber shrinkage and movement.
