FAQs

The Regency style, spanning roughly from 1811 to 1820, draws heavy inspiration from classical Greek, Roman, and Egyptian architecture, characterised by clean lines, classical proportions, and often ebonised or gilt finishes.

Regency settees were typically constructed from hardwoods such as mahogany or beech, frequently ebonised to simulate more exotic woods, and featured turned legs, brass castors, and traditional stuffing like horsehair.

Authentication relies on examining timber species, joinery techniques such as hand-cut dovetails or traditional mortise and tenon joints, hand-turned leg details, and period-appropriate wear patterns on the ebonised finish.

An antique ebonised sofa works well as a focal point in a modern space when paired with neutral upholstery, contrasting textures like linen or wool, and minimalist contemporary lighting to balance the historical weight.

Preservation requires keeping the piece out of direct sunlight, maintaining stable indoor humidity levels to prevent wood cracking, and dusting gently with a dry, soft cloth without applying modern silicone-based polishes.
