Dealers Notes

Our stock includes early oak and walnut furniture from the 18th century, as well as more formal pieces from the Georgian period. Clocks, barometers and globes are complemented by Colonial cabinets, furniture and early arms. 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.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Originating in the 18th century, Thames Valley Windsor chairs are regional variations characterised by distinctive design features such as cabriole front legs, pierced fretwork splats, and the frequent use of native timbers like yew wood and elm.

Craftspeople typically utilised native hardwoods, combining yew wood or ash for steam-bent bows and spindles, elm for shaped saddle seats, and cabriole or turned legs made from dense timbers to ensure structural integrity.

Authentic pieces feature hand-carved details, deep surface patination, wedged joinery beneath the seat, solid hand-adzed saddle seats, and subtle irregular wear consistent with centuries of use.

Positioned as a single accent piece in a study, hallway, or living space, the warm timber tones and sculpted silhouette provide a visual anchor when set alongside clean-lined contemporary furnishings.

Keep the timber positioned away from direct heat sources and bright sunlight to prevent shrinkage, dust regularly with a soft dry cloth, and apply a clear beeswax polish annually to preserve the finish.
