FAQs

Windsor chairs originated in the English countryside during the early 18th century, developing from vernacular woodworking traditions where individual components were turned on pole lathes and seated in solid wooden planks.

Authentic pieces typically feature a combination of native timbers, such as elm for the carved seats, ash or beech for the bentwood hoops and spindles, and fruitwood or birch for the turned legs.

Authenticity is indicated by traditional joinery methods like wedged through-tenns, hand-carved saddle seats showing natural wear patterns, tool marks from drawknives, and the appropriate patination and oxidisation of the timber over centuries.

These versatile pieces bring warmth and texture to contemporary dining spaces when paired with minimalist tables, or they can serve as accent seating in a study or hallway to contrast with modern lines.

Maintain antique wooden furniture by keeping them away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent timber shrinkage, and occasionally nourish the wood with traditional beeswax rather than modern silicone polishes.
