FAQs

Georgian dining chairs date from the 18th century during the reigns of George I through George IV, a period heavily influenced by master cabinetmakers such as Thomas Chippendale, George Hepplewhite, and Thomas Sheraton, known for refined classical proportions and elaborate back splats.

These pieces predominantly utilized imported dense tropical hardwoods like Cuban or Honduras mahogany, joined using traditional mortise and tenon joinery, hand-carved details, and drop-in upholstered seats secured by webbed frames.

Authenticity is determined by inspecting secondary woods in the frame, hand-cut dovetails or joinery marks, patination and wear consistent with age, tool marks from hand planes, and the absence of modern machine-sawn timber or modern fixings.

They can be paired with a minimalist contemporary dining table to create a deliberate contrast between historic craftsmanship and clean modern lines, grounding the space with rich dark wood tones.

Maintain antique wooden seating by keeping them away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent timber splitting, applying microcrystalline wax periodically, and avoiding silicone-based polishes.
