FAQs

Originating in 18th-century Britain during the reign of King George III, a bedside commode was a functional piece of bedroom furniture designed to house a chamber pot discreetly inside a wooden cabinet while offering a tray-top surface for modern conveniences.

These pieces were predominantly crafted from solid mahogany and mahogany veneers, featuring dovetail drawer joints, brass handles, and gallery tops with hand-cut carrying handles to allow movement between rooms.

Authentic 18th-century pieces feature hand-sawn timber marks, original brass hardware showing natural oxidisation, hand-cut dovetail joinery, and natural wear around the gallery edges and feet consistent with centuries of use.

A Georgian commode functions as an elegant nightstand beside a modern upholstered bed or as an occasional side table in a living room, providing enclosed storage alongside classic architectural proportions.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a beeswax polish once or twice a year to nourish the timber, keeping the piece away from direct heat sources and severe humidity fluctuations to prevent cracking.
