FAQs

Wingback armchairs originated in the 17th century, designed primarily to protect sitters from drafts in poorly heated rooms by trapping heat around the head and torso.

Traditional construction typically involved a solid hardwood frame such as beech, oak, or walnut, joined with traditional mortise and tenon techniques, and stuffed with natural fibres like horsehair or wool.

Authentic pieces can be identified through hand-cut joinery, signs of age-related wear on the timber, traditional upholstery techniques, and period-appropriate textile patterns.

Pairing a traditional upholstered chair with contemporary minimalist furniture creates a balanced, eclectic aesthetic that highlights the craftsmanship of the antique piece.

Keep upholstered items out of direct sunlight to prevent textile fading and fabric degradation, and gently vacuum with a soft brush attachment to remove dust.
