FAQs

Regency furniture, spanning the late 18th to early 19th centuries, is characterised by classical influences drawn from ancient Greece and Rome, often featuring clean lines, dark exotic woods like rosewood, and restrained classical brass ornamentation.

Cabinet makers predominantly used dense hardwoods such as mahogany and rosewood, frequently incorporating turned wooden components, brass castors, and traditional upholstery fillings like horsehair.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit period-appropriate joinery techniques, hand-turned elements, natural patina on the wood surfaces, and hardware such as brass castors consistent with nineteenth-century manufacturing methods.

Pairing a formal historical armchair with contemporary minimalist furnishings creates a balanced interior, allowing the rich wood tones and classical silhouette to serve as a focal point.

Preserve antique rosewood by keeping it out of direct sunlight to prevent fading, maintaining stable indoor humidity levels, and cleaning only with a soft, dry cloth without harsh chemical polishes.
