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.

  • ObjectArmchairs
  • Period19th century
  • StyleLouis XV
  • MaterialBeech, Silk Damask
  • ColourSage Green
  • MotifsCarved floral cresting, Cabriole legs, Scroll arms, Winged backrest

The Louis XV style, prevalent during the 18th century, is characterised by asymmetrical ornamentation, flowing curves, cabriole legs, and a departure from heavy straight lines in favour of organic, naturalistic motifs.

These frames were typically crafted from native European hardwoods such as beech or walnut, carved by hand, and traditionally joined using mortise and tenon construction before being stuffed with natural fibres like horsehair and wool.

Authentic period pieces often display hand-cut joinery, tool marks from traditional chisels on the frame undersides, and appropriate patina and oxidisation on the timber consistent with age.

Pairing a highly ornate historical armchair with minimalist modern architecture and neutral walls creates a striking visual contrast, allowing the classical craftsmanship to serve as a focal point.

Keep wooden frames away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent timber splitting, and use professional dry-cleaning methods for delicate textile upholstery to preserve the integrity of the fabric.
