FAQs

Developed during the reign of Queen Anne in the early 18th century, this furniture style emphasises fluid curves, refined simplicity, and ergonomic form over heavy surface carving. Key design elements include curving silhouettes, vasiform back splats, and cabriole legs.

Craftsmen primarily utilised native walnut, oak, and fruitwoods, held together using traditional mortise and tenon joinery secured with wooden dowels. Seats were frequently fitted with drop-in cushions covered in woven wool, needlepoint, or damask fabrics.

Authentic period pieces typically exhibit hand-sawn tool marks, irregular peg placement at joinery points, and natural wood shrinkage across timber elements over time. The presence of hand-turned stretchers and undisturbed patination on lower frame surfaces also signals age.

Single side chairs function effectively as accent seating in hallways, bedrooms, or beside writing desks, creating textural contrast against modern architectural lines. Placing period chairs around a contemporary dining table creates a mixed-era interior scheme.

Keep wooden chairs away from direct heat sources and bright sunlight to prevent timber shrinkage or cracking. Dust regularly with a soft cloth and apply natural beeswax polish periodically to maintain the surface finish without causing wax build-up.
