FAQs

Charles II or Carolean furniture dates to the English Restoration period between 1660 and 1685. It is recognised by elaborate scrollwork, barley-twist turnings, floral carvings, and the widespread introduction of woven cane back and seat panels.

Furniture makers during this period primarily utilised solid walnut, beech, and oak. Woven rattan cane was imported from East Asia to form lightweight, flexible back panels and seats, supported by hand-carved framework.

Authentic pieces feature pegged mortise-and-tenon joinery, subtle hand-planing marks, and uneven wear consistent with centuries of use. Common carved decorative motifs include crowns, acanthus leaves, cherubs, and barley-twist spiral turnings.

An ornate Carolean chair serves as a high-contrast statement piece when placed in a neutral hallway, study, or living area. Pair it alongside contemporary architectural lighting or tailored minimalist upholstery to highlight its sculpted silhouette.

Keep the chair away from direct heat sources and radiators to prevent the wood from warping and the cane from splitting. Clean dust gently with a soft brush, and treat the walnut frame periodically with natural beeswax polish to maintain the original patina.
