A bergere is an enclosed upholstered armchair with wooden framing, originating in France during the early 18th century.

These chairs typically feature a solid hardwood frame, often beech or oak, with traditional joinery, horsehair or foam stuffing, and upholstered coverings.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-carved details, traditional joinery methods such as mortise and tenon, and signs of age including oxidisation on the timber and hand-forged fixings.

They work well as statement pieces in contemporary living rooms, pairing classic silhouettes with modern minimalist decor to create a layered aesthetic.

Maintain the timber with appropriate wax polish and protect the fabric with professional cleaning methods, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent fading.
