FAQs

The George III style spans the mid to late 18th century, characterised by classical proportions, refined neoclassical influences, and high-quality craftsmanship using dense timbers like mahogany.

Cabinet makers predominantly used solid home-grown and imported hardwoods, specifically dense Cuban or Honduras mahogany, often complemented by upholstered drop-in seats covered in horsehair or linen.

Authentic pieces typically feature hand-cut joinery such as mortise and tenon construction, subtle signs of age like oxidisation on the underside, and timber with a deep, patinated finish rather than modern surface varnishes.

Pairing period wooden seating with a modern minimalist table creates a striking juxtaposition that highlights the craftsmanship of the chairs while keeping the overall room feeling balanced and uncluttered.

Maintain antique wood by keeping it away from direct sunlight and heating vents to prevent splitting, and nourish the surface periodically with natural beeswax rather than silicone-based polishes.
