FAQs

Edwardian furniture, produced during the reign of King Edward VII from 1901 to 1910, often combined influences from earlier periods such as Sheraton, Chippendale, and Louis XVI, frequently featuring lighter proportions and intricate wood veneers.

These pieces typically utilise solid secondary timbers like pine or oak for framing, overlaid with highly figured burr walnut veneer. Traditional construction involves dovetail joints for drawers and hand-cut mortise and tenon framing.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the hand-cut dovetailing on drawer construction, the presence of subtle tool marks, uniform timber ageing, natural patination, and period-appropriate cast brass or bronze hardware.

Pairing an antique wooden desk with contemporary minimalist seating or placing it against a neutral, monochromatic wall creates a balanced focal point that highlights the natural grain and texture of the wood.

Maintain burr walnut by keeping it out of direct sunlight to prevent veneer fading and drying, and apply microcrystalline wax periodically to nourish the wood surface while avoiding silicone-based polishes.
