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

Georgian chests of drawers, produced between 1714 and 1830, are defined by symmetrical proportions, classical architectural influence, and fine cabinet-making techniques. Common configurations include two short over three long graduated drawers, often supported by bracket feet and fitted with brass handles.

High-grade Cuban and Honduran mahogany became the primary timber during the 18th century, favoured for its rich figure and durability. Secondary timbers like oak or pine were used for drawer linings and backboards, complemented by hand-cast brass handles and key escutcheons.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut dovetail joints, hand-sawn secondary timbers on drawer bases, and age-related shrinkage marks on back panels. Original brass hardware will display natural patination and hand-worked fixing screws rather than modern uniform threads.

A Georgian mahogany chest serves as a grounding focal point in entryways, bedrooms, or living rooms. It pairs well with contemporary artwork mounted above the top, neutral colour palettes, and modern ceramic or glass decorative accents.

Apply a natural beeswax polish twice a year along the grain to protect the timber surface and maintain the patina. Keep the furniture away from direct heat sources and radiators to prevent wood shrinkage, movement, or cracking.
