FAQs

The Queen Anne style emerged in England during the late 17th and early 18th centuries, characterised by curved lines, cabriole legs, and a departure from heavy ornamentation towards greater grace and comfort.

Japanning is a European imitation of Asian lacquerwork, typically executed on a wooden substrate using layers of varnish, gold leaf, and painted Chinoiserie motifs raised in relief.

Authentic pieces exhibit signs of age such as craquelure in the varnish, hand-carved joinery typical of the period, wear patterns on high-touch areas, and traditional animal glue construction.

An ornate japanned chair functions well as a singular accent piece in a minimalist or eclectic room, allowing its detailed lacquerwork and historical presence to serve as a focal point.

Maintain stable relative humidity to prevent the wood and cane from splitting, keep furniture out of direct sunlight to protect the painted finish, and dust gently with a dry, soft cloth.
