FAQs

An 18th-century French Rococo armchair, often referred to as a fauteuil, features an openwork carved wooden frame, sinuous curves, cabriole legs, and decorative motif carvings along the cresting rail and apron.

Cabinetmakers predominantly utilised native hardwoods such as walnut, beech, or fruitwood for the hand-carved frames, paired with traditional webbed construction, horsehair padding, and textile upholstery secured with brass studs.

Authentic period chairs display evidence of hand-planed joinery, wooden peg construction, natural patination on carved surfaces, and subtle asymmetrical carved detailing typical of hand craftsmanship from the era.

Position a period walnut armchair as a standalone accent piece alongside contemporary upholstery or within a reading corner to create visual contrast between carved wood textures and minimalist architectural lines.

Maintain the timber frame by applying natural beeswax polish along the grain, keep the chair away from direct heat sources to prevent timber shrinkage, and gently vacuum the upholstery using a soft brush attachment.
