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

Regency elbow chairs, produced between roughly 1810 and 1830, are defined by their Neoclassical influence, swept scroll arms, and elegant proportions. They frequently feature carved cresting rails, turned or saber legs, and rich timber construction such as mahogany or rosewood.

Cabinetmakers during the Regency period primarily utilised solid mahogany and rosewood imported from West Indies trade routes. Frames were joined using traditional mortise and tenon joints, while seats were upholstered with horsehair padding and natural fabrics like silk, wool, or velour.

Authentic pieces exhibit signs of period craftsmanship, including hand-sawn timber undersides, hand-carved decorative motifs, and natural oxidisation on untouched surfaces. Look for original joinery, irregular tool marks, and a deep patina developed over decades of use.

Position a pair of Regency armchairs flanking a console table, alongside a desk, or as accent seating in a living room. Their defined wooden silhouettes complement both traditional decor and minimalist contemporary spaces.

Dust wood frames regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a beeswax polish annually to protect the original finish. Upholstered areas should be vacuumed gently on low suction, keeping the chairs away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent wood splitting or fabric fading.
