Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Victorian leather club armchairs are characteristically designed for comfort, featuring deep seats, padded armrests, and framed in solid hardwoods such as mahogany or walnut. Popularised during the nineteenth century in private gentlemans clubs and libraries, these chairs combined substantial proportions with durable leather upholstery.

These chairs typically feature solid mahogany or oak frames, hand-tied coil springs, horsehair stuffing, and full-grain leather upholstery secured with individual brass studs. Front legs were often turned or carved, supported by brass castors, while back legs remained curved and plain.

Look for hand-carved joinery details, hand-turned front legs, original brass castors with period fixings, and natural wear patterns on the frame timber. Original leather often displays historic surface patination and close hand-tacked brass stud work around the frame edges.

Positioning a pair of leather armchairs across from a sleek minimalist sofa creates a balanced dialogue between historical texture and contemporary design. Pairing them with architectural floor lamps and neutral textiles highlights the rich tone of the timber and leather.

Condition the leather periodically with specialised hide food to prevent drying out and cracking, avoiding direct heat sources and sunlight. Clean the mahogany frame with a soft cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish along the wood grain.
