FAQs

Originating between 1727 and 1760, George II furniture reflects a transition from early Georgian simplicity to more carved details, featuring proportioned designs, dark mahogany, and rich golden oak woods.

These chests were typically constructed using solid native timbers such as oak, walnut, or mahogany, featuring hand-dovetailed drawer joints, pine drawer linings, and cast brass swan-neck handles with keyhole escutcheons.

Authentic pieces display hand-sawn timber marks, irregular hand-cut dovetail joints, oak or pine secondary woods with natural shrinkage gaps, original steel locks, and authentic patination around handles and keyholes.

A period oak chest provides balance when paired with minimalist neutral walls, contemporary abstract artwork, and streamlined modern lighting to create contrast between historic timber and contemporary elements.

Dust the surface regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year, keeping the piece away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent wood shrinkage.
