Wardrobes Vintage & Antique FAQ’s
How do I know if my wardrobe is antique?
Much like identifying any antique wooden furniture in the United Kingdom, to be able to tell if a wardrobe is antique, first check these parts of the drawer: the back, the sides and the bottom. Check the drawers as well. You should be able to find cuts or nicks, as the wood would be cut with a drawknife, a plane, or a spokeshave. If there are straight saw marks, it would be another indication that you are looking at an old piece. Circular or arc-shaped marks would mean that it was created in 1860 England. These are just some of the ways of identifying the authenticity as well as the time period the items were crafted, which could greatly affect its price. Don’t hesitate to contact us whenever you need additional information about a particular piece.
What's the most popular period for antique wardrobes?
The most popular of these antique clothes storage is Victorian, which also come in the most varied style and wood used: walnut, pine, mahogany and rose. These pieces usually have a more extravagant design and size. You would find that most of these pieces have ornate carvings and details. The Victorian era had heavy and dark furniture, a complete opposite to the era that followed it, the Edwardian, which featured floral designs and light, pastel colours.
Are retro wardrobes classed as vintage antiques?
Vintage includes furniture items that are at least two decades old. Whether the furniture has been restored or not, it doesn’t affect the classification of the item. Newer pieces within the vintage category, such as those dated between the 1950s and 1980s are generally considered retro. The retro wardrobes UK manufacturers talk about would mean the style of furniture that was popular years ago, especially in the decades 1950, 1960, 1970, and 1980. If you appreciate old fashioned wardrobe, have a look at Love Antiques’ vintage wardrobe for sale, as well as our antique wardrobes UK collection. You may find something you’d like.
What are popular materials used for wardrobe antiques?
Wardrobes antique or vintage are made from different types of material. In the 1700s, you will find that the material that wardrobes are made from is walnut. Prior to that, oak was the preferred material for making wardrobes. Georgian wardrobes were made from mahogany while the Victorian wardrobes have a variety of wood used including mahogany, walnut, and rose. Pine wardrobe was also popular in the Victorian era.
Do Antique Dealers in the UK regularly stock art deco wardrobes?
Here at Love Antiques, our dealers from all around the United Kingdom regularly stock art deco wardrobes and other old wardrobes for sale from different eras. Be it an antique oak wardrobe, vintage style wardrobes or antique single wardrobe, or a mahogany wardrobe antique that came with mirrors and drawers, you might find a glass armoire fit to display your collection of ceramics. Maybe a walnut cupboard from circa 1920, with a vanity mirror and dressers decorated with ceramic tiles is more your style.
