The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Originating in the late 17th century, William and Mary furniture reflects Dutch and French Baroque influences. Key characteristics include tall vertical lines, intricate wood carving, turned legs, elaborate stretchers, and upholstered panels for added comfort.

English furniture from this era predominantly utilised solid oak or walnut, often paired with woven cane or rich textile upholstery. Construction relied on traditional joinery techniques, such as mortise and tenon joints held together with wooden pegs.

Authentic pieces display hand-carved details with minor irregularities, natural wear on handrests and stretchers, and original joint construction. The timber typically exhibits deep patination and oxidation consistent with three centuries of age.

Place the armchair as a single statement piece in a reading corner, hallway, or living area to create contrast against modern architectural lines. Pairing dark period timber with neutral walls highlights the sculptural quality of the carving.

Clean timber surfaces with a soft, dry cloth and apply a quality beeswax polish once or twice a year to maintain the luster. Keep the furniture away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent timber shrinkage or fabric fading.
