FAQs

Georgian ladder back chairs originated during the 18th century, favoured for their robust construction, ergonomic horizontal slats, and utilitarian elegance suited to both country homes and provincial dining rooms.

These pieces were typically constructed from native hardwoods such as elm, ash, or oak, featuring joined frames and traditional woven rush or straw seats designed for durability.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-appropriate joinery such as pegged mortise and tenon joints, hand-turned elements with minor variances, and natural patina consistent with age and wear.

Pairing these chairs with a contemporary minimalist dining table creates a balanced contrast, highlighting the artisanal craftsmanship and organic texture within a modern setting.

Maintain these chairs by keeping them away from direct heat sources and sunlight, applying microcrystalline wax sparingly to nourish the wood, and handling rush seats with care to prevent breakage.
