FAQs

The Howard style originates from the renowned 19th-century London firm Howard & Sons, characterised by deep seats, low-rolled arms, and exceptional ergonomic comfort combined with fine craftsmanship.

These armchairs typically feature sturdy hardwood frames, traditionally constructed using beech or mahogany, paired with coiled springs, horsehair stuffing, and heavy hessian or calico under-upholstery.

Authentic pieces often feature stamped manufacturer numbers on the rear castors, stamped brass sockets, and distinctive structural proportions known for their superior sit and tailored upholstery lines.

They can be integrated into modern living spaces by pairing them with minimalist coffee tables and neutral palettes, allowing the classic silhouette and textured upholstery to act as a sophisticated focal point.

Preservation involves regular gentle vacuuming with a soft brush attachment to remove dust, keeping them away from direct sunlight to prevent fabric fading, and avoiding moisture on exposed wooden components.
