FAQs

The Edwardian era, spanning the reign of King Edward VII from 1901 to 1910, is characterised by a blend of opulent revival styles and refined craftsmanship, often reflecting the leisure pursuits of the wealthy elite.

Fine period chess boards were typically constructed using contrasting hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, boxwood, and maple, frequently featuring precise marquetry and veneer work.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-appropriate joinery, traditional hand-finishing techniques, natural material ageing, and specific wood species common to early 20th-century cabinet making.

An antique game board can be displayed flat on a coffee table or mounted on a wall as functional art, adding historical texture and intellectual charm to contemporary spaces.

Maintain stable indoor humidity levels, keep out of direct sunlight to prevent wood fading, and occasionally nourish the timber with appropriate microcrystalline wax or furniture polish.
