FAQs

Windsor chairs originated in England during the early 18th century, developing from traditional wagon-making techniques where spindles and legs were secured directly into a solid wooden seat.

Traditional Windsor chairs typically feature a combination of native timbers, utilising dense woods like elm or fruitwood for the sculpted seats, beech or ash for the bent steam-bows and spindles, and ash or pine for the undercarriage legs.

Authenticity is identified through construction markers such as wedged through-tenon joints, tool marks from adzes on the saddle seats, hand-turned spindles with subtle irregularities, and natural patina resulting from decades of wear.

Windsor chairs provide organic warmth and textural contrast when juxtaposed against sleek contemporary dining tables or used as standalone accent seating in minimalist spaces.

Preservation requires maintaining stable indoor humidity levels to prevent wood shrinkage, avoiding direct heat sources, and periodically applying microcrystalline wax to nourish and protect the historic finish.
