FAQs

Victorian marquetry furniture was heavily inspired by earlier French styles, particularly Louis XV and Louis XVI designs, incorporating intricate wood veneers to create pictorial motifs.

These pieces typically utilised a supportive softwood or hardwood carcase veneered with exotic woods like kingwood, enhanced by hand-cut floral marquetry and cast brass mounts.

Authentic pieces show natural signs of age in the timber and patination, hand-cut veneer joints with minor irregularities, and traditional hand-cut dovetailing within the drawer construction.

Pairing an ornate historic cabinet with clean, contemporary walls and minimalist lighting creates a balanced focal point that highlights the craftsmanship of the timber.

Keep veneered furniture away from direct sunlight and radiators to prevent wood shrinkage, and maintain the finish by applying quality microcrystalline wax sparingly.
