The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A Georgian secretaire bookcase is a multi-functional piece of furniture introduced in the eighteenth century, featuring an upper glazed cabinet for books atop a chest of drawers with a drop-front writing surface concealed within the top drawer.

These cabinets were primarily constructed using flame mahogany veneers applied over oak or pine carcasses, accented with satinwood or boxwood marquetry inlays, hand-cut glass panes, and cast brass handles.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-cut dovetail joints, oak or pine drawer linings, original brass lock mechanisms, subtle imperfections in hand-blown glass, and hand-planed wood back panels.

Place the piece against neutral or dark muted walls in a modern office, living room, or hallway, filling the glazed upper shelves with contemporary ceramics or art alongside books to create a balanced juxtaposition.

Keep the wood away from direct sunlight and central heating radiators to prevent veneer lifting or fading. Dust using a dry microfibre cloth and apply a quality natural beeswax polish once or twice annually.
