Wing chairs originated in the 17th century and became widely popular during the Georgian era to protect sitters from drafts and radiate heat from fireplaces.

Authentic period chairs typically utilized native timbers such as elm, oak, and walnut, joined with traditional pegged mortise and tenon joinery and stuffed with natural fibres like horsehair.

Authentication involves examining hand-cut joints, timber oxidisation patterns, tool marks, and construction methods consistent with pre-industrial cabinet making.

An antique chair can be paired with contemporary minimalism to create a striking contrast, using either traditional fabrics or modern textiles to bridge historical and current design aesthetics.

Preservation requires maintaining stable indoor humidity levels, avoiding direct sunlight, and periodically feeding exposed wooden frames with appropriate microcrystalline wax or natural oils.
