FAQs

Georgian armchairs from the 18th century are characterised by high-grade mahogany timber, balanced proportions, and detailed joinery. Key features often include pierced back splats influenced by Gothic or Chippendale design, shaped open armrests, and carved corner brackets on straight or cabriole legs.

Primary woods were almost exclusively solid Cuban or West Indian mahogany, prized for its density and deep tone. Frames were held together with traditional mortise and tenon joinery, whilst seats were upholstered using natural stuffing such as horsehair, finished with woven tapestry or velvet covers.

Authentic period chairs show signs of hand-carved joinery, including irregular saw marks on the frame underside and natural oxidisation on unpolished surfaces. Look for original corner blocks, proper hand-cut dovetails, and legitimate surface wear along lower stretchers and armrests.

A single Georgian carver chair functions effectively as an accent piece alongside a contemporary desk, placed in a reading nook, or used at the end of a modern dining table. The dark mahogany timber creates visual contrast when paired against neutral walls or minimalistic background decor.

Clean timber surfaces periodically using a high-quality beeswax polish applied along the grain, avoiding silicone sprays. Upholstery and tapestry panels should be kept out of direct sunlight to prevent fibre degradation and cleaned gently using a soft brush attachment on a vacuum.
