FAQs

Edwardian furniture, produced during the reign of King Edward VII from 1901 to 1910, frequently drew inspiration from earlier periods such as Georgian and Sheraton designs, prioritising lighter proportions, practicality, and fine craftsmanship compared to the heavier Victorian aesthetic.

Cabinet makers of this era predominantly utilised quarter-sawn oak, mahogany, and walnut, often featuring solid timber construction complemented by subtle carved details, brass hardware, and panelled backs.

Authentication involves examining construction methods such as hand-cut dovetails, timber shrinkage patterns, period-appropriate fixings, and natural patination that develops on the wood over decades of use.

Pairing a traditional wooden piece with contemporary items creates balance; style the shelves using a mix of books organised by colour or size alongside modern ceramics, framed art, and sculptural objects.

Maintain antique oak by keeping it away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent timber splitting, applying microcrystalline wax periodically to nourish the wood, and dusting gently with a dry microfibre cloth.
