Dealers Notes

Our stock includes early oak and walnut furniture from the 18th century, as well as more formal pieces from the Georgian period. Clocks, barometers and globes are complemented by Colonial cabinets, furniture and early arms. Their scientific instruments, which include early microscopes, telescopes and equipment such as sextants, provide a fascinating insight into the evolution of technology, whilst demonstrating fine artistry and craftsmanship. One of Hansord’s many exhibitions was entitled ‘From simplicity to complexity with a little eccentricity’ and this continues to be the guiding mantra behind their collection today.

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

Originating in early 18th-century England, the Queen Anne kneehole desk is a compact writing cabinet featuring a central recessed space for legroom, flanked by columns of small drawers and often fitted with a recessed central cupboard.

Early 18th-century desks were typically constructed using an oak or pine carcass veneered with figured walnut or burr walnut, detailed with herringbone or feather banding, and fitted with hand-dovetailed drawers and cast brass swing handles.

Authentic period pieces exhibit signs of traditional joinery, including thick, hand-cut dovetails, pine or oak drawer linings, original brass backplates with irregular hand-cut threads, and natural age-related veneer shrinkage.

A antique kneehole desk functions as an elegant side table, hallway console, or compact study desk, contrasting well against contemporary paint palettes and minimalist decorative accents.

Keep walnut veneer furniture away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent shrinkage or cracking, dust regularly with a soft dry cloth, and apply a high-quality beeswax polish periodically to protect the finish.
