FAQs

The Hepplewhite style emerged during the late eighteenth century, popularised by cabinetmaker George Hepplewhite, characterised by elegant lines, slender proportions, and distinctive shield-shaped chair backs.

These pieces are typically constructed from solid mahogany using traditional joinery techniques such as mortise and tenon, often featuring hand-carved details and upholstered drop-in or fixed seats.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-correct joinery, natural timber ageing, hand-cut secondary woods, and subtle tool marks indicative of eighteenth-century craftsmanship rather than modern machine reproduction.

Pairing these classic chairs with a contemporary dining table creates a striking contrast that highlights their craftsmanship while grounding the room in a curated, eclectic aesthetic.

Maintain antique mahogany by keeping it away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dusting regularly with a soft dry cloth, and occasionally applying appropriate natural waxes to nourish the timber.
