Our stock includes early oak and walnut furniture from the 18th century, as well as more formal pieces from the Georgian period.

Their scientific instruments, which include early microscopes, telescopes and equipment such as sextants, provide a fascinating insight into the evolution of technology, whilst demonstrating fine artistry and craftsmanship. One of Hansord’s many exhibitions was entitled ‘From simplicity to complexity with a little eccentricity’ and this continues to be the guiding mantra behind their collection today.

FAQs

A Thames Valley Windsor armchair is a regional style of traditional English seating produced during the 18th and 19th centuries around High Wycombe and the surrounding Thames Valley area, characterized by steam-bent wood frames, pierced central splats, and solid contoured seats.

Windsor chairs were typically made using a combination of regional hardwoods; prized examples feature yew wood for bent hoops and armbows, elm for the carved saddle seat, and ash or fruitwood for the turned spindles and stretchers.

Authentic 18th-century examples feature hand-carved pierced splats, cabriole front legs with pad feet, distinct grain patterns characteristic of yew timber, wedged mortise-and-tenon joinery, and evidence of hand-tooling on the underside of the seat.

A traditional Windsor armchair can be styled as a singular accent piece alongside clean-lined modern sofas, positioned at a minimalist writing desk, or placed in a hallway to introduce warmth and architectural texture to a modern space.

Preserve the natural timber patination by keeping the chair away from direct heat sources and central heating radiators to prevent drying or splitting, and apply a high-grade beeswax polish periodically with a soft cloth.
