FAQs

Authentication involves examining construction methods, such as wedged through-tenon joints, tool marks from adzes and drawknives on the seat bottom, peg fastenings, and natural timber oxidisation and wear consistent with age.

This seating pairs effectively with contemporary minimalist dining tables or acts as a standalone accent piece in a living room, contrasting the organic warmth of aged timber with clean architectural lines.

Preservation requires maintaining stable indoor humidity levels away from direct heat sources to prevent timber shrinkage, cleaning periodically with a soft dry cloth, and occasionally applying microcrystalline wax to nourish the surface.

Authentic period Windsor chairs typically employed a combination of timbers chosen for specific structural properties, such as elm for the solid carved seat to prevent splitting, ash or beech for the bent components and spindles, and fruitwood or pine for the legs and stretchers.

A Windsor lathback armchair is a traditional wooden seating form featuring a solid carved wooden seat, turned legs, and a distinctive backrest composed of vertical wooden slats or laths fitted into a bentwood bow or top rail.
