How do I fit a large wardrobe in a modern room?

Many Edwardian wardrobes dismantle into manageable sections including a cornice, base, and separate side panels or doors for transport. Check the ceiling height and clearance in your room before delivery, as these pieces were built to stand tall and fill a wall.

Can I remove the internal mirror?

The bevelled glass mirror is integral to the door construction and frame stability, secured behind wooden beads. Removing it alters the original design and leaves an open aperture, so most owners leave the glass intact.

How do I care for antique oak surfaces?

Feed the dry timber occasionally with a traditional beeswax polish applied with a soft cloth and buffed gently. Keep the wardrobe away from direct heat sources and radiators to prevent the solid panels from splitting or warping.
