FAQs

The George II period spans from 1727 to 1760 and is characterised by a transition from heavier walnut designs to lighter mahogany, featuring architectural proportions, restrained carving, and exceptional cabinet-making techniques.

These pieces were typically constructed using native or imported hardwoods such as walnut, oak for secondary framing and drawer linings, and pine for backing boards, often finished with decorative veneers and crossbanding.

Authenticity is determined by inspecting dovetail joints for hand-cut irregularity, examining drawer linings for secondary woods like oak, checking for period-correct brass hardware, and assessing the natural oxidisation and grain pattern of the timber.

Pairing a richly grained wooden tallboy with neutral walls and minimalist modern lighting creates a balanced contrast that highlights the historic craftsmanship without overwhelming the room.

Maintain antique wooden surfaces by keeping them away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dusting regularly with a dry cloth, and occasionally applying microcrystalline wax to nourish the timber.
