FAQs

Burr walnut gained immense popularity in British cabinet making during the late 17th and 18th centuries, particularly in the William and Mary and Queen Anne periods, prized for its intricate grain patterns and rich tones.

These pieces typically feature veneers of highly figured burr walnut applied over solid secondary woods such as oak or pine, often constructed with hand-cut dovetail joints on the drawers and solid brass hardware.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the hand-cut dovetails, timber shrinkage patterns, natural wax patination, and the construction of the carcase which should utilise period-appropriate secondary woods.

A burr walnut chest adds warmth and texture when paired with neutral walls, minimalist upholstery, and modern lighting, serving as a sophisticated focal point in a living room or hallway.

Maintain antique walnut by keeping it out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources, applying natural beeswax periodically, and avoiding silicone-based polishes or excessive moisture.
