FAQs

Georgian furniture is characterised by classical proportions, symmetry, and the use of fine timbers such as mahogany, reflecting architectural influences from the 18th century.

These pieces typically feature solid timber frames, hand-cut dovetail joints in drawers, hand-blown glass panels, and brass hardware, constructed using traditional joinery techniques.

Authenticity is determined by inspecting timber shrinkage, hand-cut joinery, old glass characteristics with minor imperfections, and period-appropriate hardware and fixings.

They can be integrated by contrasting the dark wood tones against neutral walls, arranging books by colour or size, and mixing in modern ceramics to create visual balance.

Preservation involves maintaining stable indoor humidity levels, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent timber fading, and occasionally applying microcrystalline wax to nourish the wood.
