The Sustainable Choice

FAQs

A Regency towel rail, also known as a towel horse, is a freestanding timber frame crafted during the early 19th century to hold towels and linens in bedrooms and dressing rooms.

High-grade Cuban or West Indian mahogany was predominantly used, featuring turned horizontal bars, mortise-and-tenon joinery, and heavy sledge feet for stability.

Authentic Regency examples display crisp hand-turned uprights, original patination, fine joinery, and distinctive carved or shaped sledge feet characteristic of cabinetmakers like Gillows.

An antique towel rail can be incorporated into a modern bathroom to display folded linens or placed in a bedroom to hold quilts and throws.

Keep the piece away from direct radiators and excessive atmospheric dampness, dusting regularly with a dry cloth and applying beeswax occasionally to maintain the finish.
