FAQs

A Windsor armchair features solid wood construction where turned spindles and leg joints are socketed directly into a thick, shaped solid wood seat. 18th-century examples often display pierced central back splats, curved arm supports, and cabriole front legs.

Windsor chairs were typically constructed using a combination of regional native hardwoods. Elm was standard for the thick carved seat due to its split-resistant grain, while yew, ash, or beech were used for bentwood bows, turned legs, and back spindles.

Period 18th-century Windsor chairs display hand-hewn construction marks, irregular spindle hand-shaving, authentic wedge-joint wedging beneath the seat, and natural wear patterns on the front stretcher and leg feet consistent with centuries of use.

An antique Windsor chair functions as an accent piece in a quiet reading corner, hallway, or combined with modern dining furniture for an eclectic mix of textures and historical eras.

Dust surfaces regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax paste annually to nourish the timber and protect the natural patina. Keep the piece away from direct heat sources and radiator units to prevent timber shrinkage or splitting.
