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

Mid-18th century George II furniture is characterised by balanced proportions, clean lines, and the use of rich hardwoods such as walnut and mahogany. Pieces from this era often feature bracket feet, decorative brass backplate handles, and subtle moulding along edge profiles.

18th-century furniture markers employed hand-cut dovetail joints for drawer construction, solid oak or pine secondary woods for drawer linings, and hand-planed backboards. Veneers were often applied to softwood carcasses to achieve symmetry in the wood grain.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-finished drawer construction, irregular dovetails, period-correct brass escutcheon plates, and signs of historical wear on the underside and drawer runners. Original iron nails and hand-sawn tool marks are also typical indicators of age.

A Georgian chest of drawers works as a anchor piece in a hallway, bedroom, or living area when paired with contemporary artwork or structured table lamps. The dark timber contrasting with modern neutral wall palettes adds depth and historical context to current spaces.

Walnut furniture requires placement away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight to prevent timber warping and finish bleaching. Periodic application of natural beeswax nourishes the wood while preserving accumulated surface patina.
