This early 20th century Edwardian country house armchair by Maple and Co brings traditional English character to any living room or reading corner today. Upholstered in its original cream and floral linen fabric, the piece exhibits significant wear, fraying, and tattering throughout the cover. The design incorporates a deep seat cushion and rounded padded arms alongside turned wooden front legs fitted with small brass castors. Standing 87 cm high, 76 cm wide, and 82 cm deep with a seat height of 38 cm, the wooden frame provides sturdy proportions suited for everyday seating. The floral chintz pattern features tones of pink, green, and purple set against a pale background. The upholstery shows exposed edges and visible distress consistent with its age, while the turned wooden feet display a dark finish and support smooth metal castors. A comfortable addition to a traditional study or country home interior, the armchair offers both practical seating and an opportunity for restoration.

FAQs

Maple & Co was a prominent British furniture manufacturer renowned for producing high-quality upholstered armchairs and cabinet furniture during the late Victorian and Edwardian eras.

Armchairs from this period typically feature solid timber frames, hand-tied coil springs, horsehair upholstery filling, turned hardwood legs, and brass castors.

Authentic pieces frequently bear stamped makers marks on the wooden legs, printed fabric labels attached to the underside of the frame, or stamped brass castors.

Position the chair in a reading corner or living space, balancing its floral fabric pattern against plain contemporary soft furnishings or dark wood side tables.

Vacuum softly using a low-suction fabric attachment, position the piece away from direct sunlight to prevent fabric fading, and consult a specialist conservator for repair work.
