Howard armchairs, originating from the nineteenth-century London firm Howard & Sons, are characterised by low-slung, comfortable proportions, gently scrolled arms, and tapered wooden legs fitted with brass castors.

Authentic pieces typically feature a beechwood frame, traditional coil spring suspension, horsehair stuffing, and high-quality leather or upholstered fabric coverings secured with brass tacks.

Authenticity is often verified by stamped numbers on the legs, manufacturer stamps on the castors, branded webbing, and the traditional hand-tied spring construction method.

This piece works well as a reading chair paired with a minimalist floor lamp or placed alongside contemporary neutral sofas to add historical texture and warmth to a room.

Maintain the leather by keeping it away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dusting regularly with a soft cloth, and applying a specialist leather conditioner periodically to prevent drying and cracking.
