FAQs

Louis XV furniture, originating in mid-eighteenth-century France, is characterised by asymmetric curves, serpentine silhouettes, and slender cabriole legs. The style emphasises comfort and decorative detail through the use of lacquer, delicate mouldings, and gilt bronze mounts.

Traditional French lacquerware utilised wooden frameworks coated with multiple layers of resin varnish or japanning to achieve a high-gloss finish. Craftsmen applied brass or bronze ormolu mounts to protect edges and corners while providing visual contrast against the dark surface.

Authentic pieces feature hand-chased gilt bronze mounts, pegged mortise-and-tenon joinery, and evidence of hand-shaped cabriole legs. Natural wood shrinkage and uniform age-related oxidisation around original fixings also distinguish genuine period items from modern reproductions.

A black lacquered table provides grounding contrast when placed alongside light upholstery, linen seating, or neutral floor coverings. Adding modern ceramics or minimalist glass decor to the surface creates an engaging dialogue between historic craftsmanship and contemporary interior design.

Dust the lacquered surface frequently with a dry microfibre cloth to prevent scratching. Avoid abrasive chemical solvents, direct sunlight, and excess moisture, while dusting metal mounts gently with a soft-bristled brush.
