FAQs

Regency furniture, popular in Britain during the early 19th century, is characterised by classical proportions, inspiration from ancient Greek and Roman designs, and fine cabinet-making using dark woods like mahogany.

These chairs typically feature solid mahogany frames, hand-woven cane panels on the back and sides, leather upholstery for seat and back cushions, and turned wooden legs fitted with brass castors.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-appropriate joinery, hand-turned legs with patinated brass castors, genuine hand-woven caning showing age-related wear, and dense, mature mahogany timber with a hand-polished wax finish.

Pair them with a minimalist modern sofa or position them opposite a contemporary fireplace to create a striking contrast between classical architectural lines and modern simplicity.

Keep caned panels hydrated by occasionally wiping with a damp cloth to prevent snapping, feed leather upholstery with a neutral wax or balm to maintain suppleness, and protect timber from direct sunlight and temperature fluctuations.
