How do I care for antique leather upholstery?

Leather upholstery benefits from gentle cleaning and occasional specialist conditioning to prevent the natural hide from drying out over time. Keep these pieces away from direct sunlight and strong heat sources to preserve the suppleness of the material.

Can I mix antique style chairs with a modern table?

Mixing period seating with a contemporary table creates a striking contrast that highlights the craftsmanship of the wooden frames. Ensure the seat heights align comfortably with the underside clearance of the table for practical daily use.

What is the difference between a side chair and an armchair?

Side chairs are built without armrests, making them compact enough to line up efficiently around a dining table or flank a wall. Armchairs feature structural elbow supports, offering a wider profile intended for relaxation or formal placement at the head of a table.

How do I identify a revival piece from an original period chair?

Revival pieces often display the manufacturing methods and tool marks characteristic of their later production era, such as the late 19th or early 20th century. Comparing the timber patination, construction joints, and stylistic proportions against authenticated period examples clarifies the true age of the piece.
