What periods do these pieces come from?

The selection spans pieces made in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, alongside later revival items from the Victorian era up to the early twentieth century. Swedish Gustavian examples sit alongside Italian, French, and English pieces reflecting various classical revivals.

How do I care for painted surfaces?

Keep painted wood out of direct sunlight and away from sudden temperature shifts to protect the gesso and paint layers from cracking. Dust gently with a dry, soft cloth and avoid chemical cleaning products that might lift historic pigment.

Where were these pieces used originally?

Console tables and commodes typically furnished grand reception rooms, hallways, and drawing rooms in period townhouses and country estates. Smaller occasional tables and cabinets served domestic sitting rooms for display and card games.

How do I identify a revival piece?

Revival items from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries often show construction methods and secondary woods typical of Victorian or Edwardian workshops. Stylistic cues draw heavily on earlier Adam or Sheraton designs while utilising specific period satinwood and machine-cut elements.
