FAQs

The Chippendale style, popular during the mid-to-late 18th century, is characterised by carved splat backs, often featuring interlaced or ribbon designs, and drawing inspiration from Gothic, Rococo, and Chinese aesthetics adapted by English cabinet makers.

Country chairs from the Georgian era were typically constructed using locally sourced hardwoods like oak for structural frames, elm for seats due to its interlocking grain preventing splits, and rush or straw woven to create durable seating pads.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut joinery such as pegged mortise and tenon joints, natural patination and wear consistent with age, tool marks from hand planes or adzes, and timber shrinkage cracks that indicate seasoned woods over a century old.

Mixing antique wooden chairs with a sleek, contemporary dining table creates a striking juxtaposition that adds warmth, historical texture, and character to a minimalist or modern dining space.

Preserve antique rush seats by keeping them away from direct sunlight and excessive humidity to prevent the natural fibres from becoming brittle, and gently clean the wooden frames with a soft cloth and microcrystalline wax.
