Eighteenth-century furniture design frequently utilised rich figured walnut veneers, cross-banding, and herringbone inlay, transitioning into mahogany as the century progressed.

Authentic pieces were constructed using solid timber frames with hand-cut dovetail joints on the drawer boxes, lined with secondary woods such as oak or pine.

Authenticity is identified by hand-beveled drawer edges, original brass hardware or properly filled old mounting holes, hand-cut dovetails, and natural oxidisation within the timber.

Pairing historical case furniture with contemporary minimalism creates a striking contrast, allowing the natural grain and warmth of the wood to act as a focal point.

Maintain stable indoor humidity and temperature levels away from direct sunlight and heat sources, occasionally treating the surface with traditional beeswax to nourish the wood.
