This pair of George III Hepplewhite style armchairs dates from 1900 and is fashioned from dark brown mahogany with pale sage green damask upholstery. Each open armchair has an oval backrest, curvilinear arms, and slender cabriole legs with foliate carving at the knees and pad feet. The wooden frames show a polished dark finish, while the patterned green fabric covers both the back and seat. The chairs measure 102 cm high, 61 cm wide, and 58 cm deep. These armchairs suit a living room, study, or bedroom in an English country house interior, providing elegant seating around a table or beside a fireplace. They work well paired together in a formal seating arrangement or placed individually as accent chairs against a wall.

FAQs

Named after 18th-century cabinetmaker George Hepplewhite, this style is characterised by graceful curves, elegant classical proportions, oval or shield backrests, and delicate carved detailing.

Primary frames were predominantly constructed from dense mahogany or satinwood, paired with woven upholstery fabrics such as damask, silk, or needlepoint.

Authentic pieces display hand-carved mahogany frames, original joint construction with wooden dowels, refined proportional scale, and distinctive oval or shield-shaped back designs.

Position a pair opposite a modern sofa or flanking a console table to create visual symmetry and introduce classic architectural balance to a room scheme.

Clean timber elements regularly using a soft cloth and beeswax polish, while vacuuming upholstery gently with a brush attachment to protect delicate textiles from dust build-up.
