How do I fit a large wardrobe?

Measure your ceiling height and stair clearance carefully before bringing a large wardrobe into a historic home. Many of these pieces dismantle into sections, but check the component sizes to ensure they negotiate tight hallways.

Are these wardrobes deep enough?

Period wardrobes often feature shallower hanging depths than modern equivalents because historical clothing required less space. Consider adding internal solutions or using alternative orientations for modern hangers if necessary.

How do I maintain wood finishes?

Keep large timber furniture away from direct heat sources and sudden humidity shifts to protect veneers and solid construction. Apply traditional wax sparingly to nourish the polish and maintain the natural lustre of the timber.

Can I use these in modern rooms?

The substantial scale of these pieces makes them natural focal points in bedrooms with high ceilings and generous floor plans. Pairing them with neutral walls lets the rich grain of the mahogany or walnut take centre stage.
