FAQs

Nineteenth century furniture frequently utilised rich, dense timbers such as mahogany, often featuring classical proportions, turned columns, and detailed moulding characteristic of the Victorian era.

Authentic period pieces were constructed using solid hardwoods, often with secondary woods like pine or oak for drawer linings, and utilised hand-cut dovetail joints for structural integrity.

Authentication involves inspecting drawer construction for hand-cut dovetails, looking for natural timber oxidisation, and examining fixings and backboards for period-appropriate hand tools usage.

A dark wooden chest can be balanced in a contemporary setting by pairing it with neutral walls, minimalist lighting, and modern abstract art to create a deliberate contrast between old and new.

Preservation requires keeping the timber away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent cracking, dusting with a dry lint-free cloth, and occasionally applying traditional beeswax.
