FAQs

Windsor chairs are characterised by a solid wooden seat into which the legs and back spindles are tenoned directly, originating in English rural traditions during the early 18th century.

Authentic period pieces typically feature a combination of native timbers, such as an elm seat for strength and resistance to splitting, combined with ash or beech for the bentwood bow and turned legs.

Authenticity is determined by inspecting the hand-carved adze marks on the saddle seat, the presence of wedge-tenon joints visible from the top of the seat, and natural oxidisation and wear patterns consistent with age.

Mixing antique seating with a modern minimalist dining table creates a curated, layered aesthetic that introduces warmth, texture, and historical character to a contemporary space.

Maintain antique wood by keeping it away from direct heat sources and extreme humidity fluctuations, applying natural beeswax periodically to nourish the grain without sealing the surface.
