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

Louis XVI style furniture originated in 18th-century France, characterised by Neoclassical symmetry, straight geometric lines, fluted column legs, and classical motifs such as ribbon ties, acanthus leaves, and guilloche carving.

Traditional French bed frames were constructed from dense hardwoods such as oak, walnut, or beech. The frames feature hand-carved joinery and are commonly finished with natural wax, paint, or gilding alongside textile upholstery on the headboard and footboard.

Look for Neoclassical features including straight tapering legs with vertical fluting, rosette square corner blocks above the legs, symmetrical carved arched frames, and brass trim or studding securing the upholstery.

Pair the carved wooden frame with crisp white or neutral linen bedding to highlight the wood tone and fabric colour. Balance the Neoclassical features by combining the frame with simple modern nightstands or minimalist lighting fixtures.

Dust the carved oak frame regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply beeswax polish annually along the wood grain. Vacuum the upholstered sections using a soft brush attachment to prevent dust accumulation in the fabric weave.
