FAQs

The Louis XV style, emerging in 18th-century France, is characterised by asymmetrical curves, naturalistic floral carvings, cabriole legs, and an overall graceful, flowing line that moved away from heavy baroque symmetry.

Authentic pieces were typically constructed from solid hardwoods such as walnut, beech, or oak, featuring hand-carved details, mortise and tenon joinery, and traditional upholstery methods utilising natural fibres, webbing, and horsehair stuffing.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the hand-carved details for tool marks, checking the timber ageing and oxidisation, inspecting joinery construction methods, and verifying the presence of period-appropriate hand-forged fixings.

Pairing classical antique seating with minimalist architectural elements or contemporary textiles creates a balanced scheme that highlights the craftsmanship of the piece without overwhelming the space.

Maintain antique wooden frames with microcrystalline wax and protect upholstered surfaces from direct sunlight to prevent fabric fading, while using professional conservation cleaning methods for delicate textiles.
