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

A tete-a-tete, also known as a confidante or conversation chair, is an S-shaped double seat designed in 19th-century France to allow two people to converse face-to-face without turning their heads.

Traditional French seating frames were crafted from hardwoods such as beech, walnut, or oak, often finished with paint or gesso, and stuffed using natural horsehair, hessian, and coiled steel springs.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-carved wood joinery, traditional mortise and tenon joints, original brass or iron castors, and hand-tacked upholstery layers beneath the lining.

Positioning an S-shaped seat as a central feature in a drawing room, dressing room, or spacious hallway creates a focal point that contrasts historical structure with contemporary decor.

Clean painted wooden frames using a soft, dry microfibre cloth to remove dust, and avoid harsh chemical solvents or excess moisture that could damage the paint or gesso layer.
