FAQs

Windsor chairs originated in England during the early 18th century, characterised by a solid wooden seat into which the legs and back spindles are wedged directly.

Traditional construction typically involves a combination of timbers, such as an elm seat for strength, ash or yew for the bentwood bow and spindles, and beech or fruitwood for the legs.

Authentic pieces often show hand-tool marks, wedge-and-tenon joints piercing the seat, and natural wear patterns consistent with age, alongside the distinct grain of native hardwoods.

These chairs provide sculptural contrast when paired with minimalist or contemporary dining tables, or serve as a standalone accent piece in a study or living space.

Preservation involves maintaining stable indoor humidity levels away from direct heat sources and applying occasional microcrystalline wax to nourish the historic timber finish.
