FAQs

Windsor chairs originated in the English countryside during the early 18th century, developing from traditional wheelwright techniques where spindles were turned on a lathe and inserted into a solid wooden seat.

Traditional Windsor chairs typically feature a combination of native timbers, such as an elm seat for strength, ash or oak for the bent parts and legs, and beech or birch for the turned spindles, joined using traditional wedged tenon and mortise construction.

Authentic pieces often exhibit hand-turned variations in the spindles, adze marks on the saddle seat, period wear patterns around the footings, and traditional wedges securing the leg tenons protruding through the seat top.

Pairing antique Windsor chairs with a contemporary minimalist dining table creates a striking contrast that highlights their craftsmanship while adding warmth and historical texture to a modern space.

Maintain antique wooden furniture by keeping them away from direct heat sources and sunlight, and periodically nourish the timber with a traditional beeswax polish to protect the patina.
