FAQs

Originating in the early 20th century during the reign of King Edward VII, an Edwardian astragal glazed bookcase is characterised by glass doors overlaid with decorative wooden glazing bars forming geometric lattice patterns, designed for both storage and display.

These cabinets were typically crafted from solid mahogany or mahogany veneers, featuring hand-cut joinery, glass panes secured with wooden astragal mouldings, and adjustable internal wooden shelves supported by bracket feet or plinth bases.

Authentic pieces generally feature hand-fitted astragal glazing bars, original brass locks or keyhole escutcheons, natural timber grain variations on interior backboards, and fine hand-cut dovetail joints on structural frames.

Place the cabinet in a living area, home office, or dining space to display curated ceramic collections, hardback books, or glassware, balancing traditional timber tones with neutral wall paint and contemporary lighting.

Dust the wooden surfaces regularly with a soft microfibre cloth, apply beeswax sparingly along the grain once or twice a year, clean glass panes with a non-ammonia cleaner applied directly to the cloth, and keep away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
