FAQs

Victorian furniture spans the reign of Queen Victoria (1837-1901), encompassing various revival styles that often utilised dense, dark timbers like mahogany and walnut with formal, substantial proportions.

These pieces were predominantly constructed from solid hardwoods and veneers such as mahogany, oak, and rosewood, frequently featuring hand-cut dovetail joints and solid timber backboards.

Authenticity is identified through construction methods, such as hand-planed surfaces, traditional joinery like dovetails, natural wax patination, and the use of period-appropriate timber stock without modern fixings.

Integrating an antique timber piece into a modern scheme works best by balancing the dark wood tones with neutral wall colours, curated book collections, and minimal decorative objects to prevent visual heaviness.

Preservation requires maintaining stable room humidity away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dusting regularly with a dry lint-free cloth, and occasionally applying pure beeswax to nourish the timber.
