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

George II style furniture, dating from 1727 to 1760, is defined by the widespread adoption of dense mahogany, openwork splats, elaborate carving, and cabriole legs, often incorporating Rococo and classical motifs.

Primary woods included dense Cuban or West Indian mahogany, with secondary timbers such as pine, beech, or oak used for seat frames. Upholstery employed natural materials like horsehair, wool, and brass-headed studs.

Authentic pieces feature hand-cut mortise and tenon joinery, subtle asymmetry in hand-carved decorative elements, dark oxidisation in unpolished areas, and weight indicative of solid timber.

A mid-18th-century armchair can function as a standalone accent chair beside a modern desk, within a reading nook, or paired alongside contemporary art and neutral soft furnishings.

Dust mahogany surfaces regularly with a dry, soft cloth, apply beeswax sparingly once or twice a year, and maintain stable indoor humidity levels away from direct heat sources to prevent wood movement.
