FAQs

These periods are characterised by refined classical proportions, the extensive use of imported mahogany and decorative veneers, and expert craftsmanship focusing on symmetry and understated elegance.

Traditional chests typically feature solid secondary woods like oak or pine with high-grade primary veneers such as mahogany, constructed using hand-cut dovetail joints on the drawer boxes and mortise and tenon framing.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut dovetailing with irregularities, hand-sawn timber marks, aged patination on the wood and hardware, and secondary woods appropriate to the period rather than modern machine-cut joints or chipboard.

Pairing a warm timber chest with minimalist modern art, neutral walls, and streamlined contemporary lighting creates a balanced juxtaposition that highlights the craftsmanship of the antique piece.

Maintain stable indoor humidity levels away from direct heat sources and sunlight, clean surfaces with a soft dry cloth, and apply traditional beeswax periodically to nourish the timber without using modern silicone-based polishes.
