FAQs

Charles II furniture, characteristic of the late 17th century, typically features robust construction, dark timbers such as oak, and distinct turning techniques that reflect the Restoration period aesthetic.

These pieces were constructed predominantly from solid English oak, joined using traditional mortise and tenon joints secured with wooden pegs, featuring hinged drop leaves supported by swing-out legs.

Authentic items display period-correct joinery, hand-planed surfaces with natural patination, iron or brass hinges consistent with the period, and wear patterns appropriate for centuries of use.

Pair the dark timber piece with contemporary seating to create a striking contrast, or use it as a focal point in a neutral room to add historic depth and textural contrast.

Maintain the timber by avoiding direct sunlight and excessive humidity fluctuations, applying traditional beeswaxe periodically to nourish the wood and preserve the historic finish.
