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

Pastel portraiture reached significant popularity in France during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Artists favoured the medium for its speed, vibrant pigments, and ability to render delicate skin tones and textures, making it a preferred choice for societal portraits.

Pastel drawings consist of dry pigment powder mixed with a minimal liquid binder, applied onto textured paper or vellum mounted on board. These works were typically glazed under glass immediately to prevent pigment loss and framed in carved wood or giltwood moldings.

Authentic period pastels exhibit age-appropriate natural oxidisation on the paper backing, historical framing techniques, and soft friable surface texture visible beneath original glass. Look for original joinery on the wooden frame and hand-worked detailing rather than modern printed reproductions.

Framed portraits work well as focal points positioned above a sideboard, mantelpiece, or integrated into a curated gallery wall. Pairing traditional gilded frames with clean contemporary furniture creates a balanced, layered interior aesthetic.

Pastel artworks must remain behind protective glass and kept away from direct sunlight and fluctuating humidity. Avoid shaking or jarring the frame, as dry pastel particles can dislodge from the paper substrate over time.
