FAQs

The Louis XVI style emerged in France during the 18th century, characterised by a return to classical straight lines, symmetrical proportions, and geometric forms inspired by Greco-Roman excavations.

These pieces typically feature fine timber frames, elaborate veneers such as mahogany or burl wood, fire-gilt bronze mounts (ormolu), and marble tops supported by pegged or dovetailed internal construction.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-appropriate joinery, hand-cut dovetails, maker stamps or cabinetmaker marks (estampille) on the hardwood carcase, and natural wear patterns consistent with age.

An antique escritoire works well as a focal point in a study or living area, paired with minimalist seating to highlight its classic craftsmanship and warm wood tones.

Maintain stable indoor humidity and temperature levels, keep the piece away from direct sunlight to prevent veneer cracking, and treat surfaces periodically with traditional microcrystalline wax.
