FAQs

The William and Mary style, prevalent in the late 17th and early 18th centuries, is characterised by architectural forms, geometric panelling, and Dutch-influenced design elements following the 1689 accession.

Early English case furniture was predominantly constructed from native solid oak, often featuring deal secondary woods for drawer linings and backboards, joined using traditional pegged mortise and tenon methods.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut dovetail joints, pegged frame construction, hand-beaten brass hardware, and natural timber oxidisation and wear consistent with age.

An antique oak chest anchors a modern space when paired with minimalist surroundings, clean-lined upholstery, and contemporary abstract art to highlight the rich grain and historical texture.

Preserve antique oak by maintaining stable indoor humidity levels, avoiding direct sunlight, and applying occasional natural beeswax rather than modern silicon-based polishes.
