FAQs

A George II corner chair is an 18th-century seating design crafted during the reign of King George II (17271760), characterised by a diagonal square frame, curved horseshoe armrest, and decorative splats.

These chairs were primarily constructed from solid figure-grained timbers such as walnut or mahogany, paired with drop-in seats upholstered in wool, silk, or leather.

Authentic period examples feature hand-cut joinery, period-correct wear to stretchers and feet, a central front cabriole leg often detailed with shell carving or ball-and-claw feet, and hand-planed secondary woods.

An antique corner chair works effectively tucked into a study alcove, paired with a contemporary writing desk, or placed as an architectural accent piece in a hallway.

Walnut furniture should be kept away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent shrinkage or bleaching, and treated periodically with a high-quality beeswax polish.
