This style is characterised by its undulating, curved front facade and the use of rich mahogany timber, often featuring finely figured wood grains typical of the period.

Authentic pieces are typically constructed from solid mahogany and pine secondary woods, featuring hand-cut dovetail joints on the drawers and traditional brass hardware.

Authentication involves examining the drawer construction for hand-cut dovetails, checking the interior timber for age-appropriate patination, and looking for hand-forged or cast brass fixings.

Pair the rich wood tones with neutral wall colours and modern minimalist art to create a balanced contrast between historical craftsmanship and contemporary decor.

Maintain the wood by applying microcrystalline wax periodically, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent fading, and keeping the piece away from extreme temperature fluctuations.
