FAQs

Victorian furniture spans the reign of Queen Victoria (18371901) and encompasses various revivals, typically characterised by sturdy construction, rich timber such as mahogany, and functional internal configurations like sliding trays and hanging space.

Cabinet makers predominantly used dense hardwoods like mahogany, often complemented by secondary softwoods for internal framing, backed with pine panels and accented with brass or iron hardware.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-appropriate joinery such as hand-cut dovetails on internal drawers, timber shrinkage lines, hand-planed surfaces, and original brass locks or hinges rather than modern machine-made fixings.

Placing a large wooden cabinet against a neutral wall allows the rich grain and historical craftsmanship to function as a focal point, contrasting effectively with minimalist modern decor.

Maintain stable indoor humidity and temperature levels to prevent wood splitting, avoid direct sunlight to protect the finish, and apply occasional high-quality beeswax rather than silicone-based polishes.
