FAQs

Popularised during the British Regency era in the early 19th century, these cabinets typically feature a compact footprint, flame mahogany veneers, raised upper shelves supported by columns for displaying porcelain, and lower enclosed storage.

Regency furniture makers utilised high-quality solid mahogany and flame mahogany veneers over pine or oak carcass frames, complemented by brass fittings and turned wooden columns.

Authentic Regency pieces exhibit hand-cut dovetail joints, original brass keyhole escutcheon plates, pine or oak secondary timber inside drawers, turned feet, and classic decorative motifs such as scrolled cresting.

A Regency side cabinet can be positioned in a dining space or hallway, balanced with contemporary lighting, minimal ceramic vessels, or framed modern artwork to create a balanced contrast.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish once or twice annually along the timber grain, keeping the piece away from direct heat sources and intense sunlight.
