Description

An excellent antique Victorian mahogany spoon back armchair. This was made in England and it dates from around the 1860-1880’s period.

The quality is fantastic, it is very well designed and is also extremely comfortable. The solid mahogany frame is very well carved and has a sweeping look. The scroll over arms are beautifully curved and have padded upholstery, this sits on original porcelain casters.

We have had this re-upholstered in our cream cotton fabric, the wood has a gorgeous patina and colour tone. The lowr front edge has been replaced at some point, this is barely noticeable and doesn’t detract from the overall look. We have had the frame fully re-polished before upholstery, the condition is excellent for its age.

The Victorian spoon back style, popular during the 19th century, is characterised by an oval, concave backrest framed by carved wooden moulding that resembles the bowl of a spoon.

These chairs were typically constructed using dense hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, or rosewood, featuring traditional joinery, horsehair or wool stuffing, and hand-tufted upholstery.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-carved wooden details, traditional hand-tied coil springs, period-appropriate joinery, and natural ageing like minor oxidisation and wear on the wood and castors.

Pairing a traditional antique chair with contemporary minimalist furniture creates a balanced eclectic look, allowing the historic craftsmanship to serve as a focal point.

Maintain the timber by applying microcrystalline wax to nourish the wood, keep the piece away from direct sunlight and heat sources, and clean upholstered sections with professional fabric care methods.
