FAQs

Preservation requires regular gentle brushing to prevent pile flattening, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent colour fading, and professional dry cleaning only when necessary.

Pairing the textured fabric with sleek, contemporary lines creates a balanced contrast, allowing the historic piece to serve as a focal point in a minimalist or eclectic space.

Authentication involves inspecting the frame construction for hand-cut joints, examining the underside for period-appropriate webbing, and checking for traditional hand-tied coil springs.

These chairs were traditionally built using hardwood frames such as mahogany, walnut, or beech, padded with natural fibres like horsehair, and finished with cotton velvet or wool coverings.

Victorian parlour chairs typically feature deeply buttoned upholstery, turned wooden legs, and robust frames designed for formal sitting rooms during the 19th century.
