FAQs

Victorian armchairs are defined by deep buttoning, curved silhouettes, rich upholstery fabrics like velvet, and solid timber frames, typically constructed from walnut, mahogany, or rosewood during the nineteenth century.

These chairs traditionally feature solid walnut or mahogany frames, coil-sprung seats padded with horsehair and hessian, finished with hand-tufted velvet or damask upholstery, and supported by turned legs on brass castors.

Authentic pieces feature hand-carved joinery, original brass or ceramic castors, hand-tied coil springs within the seat construction, and characteristic natural wood graining typical of mid-to-late nineteenth-century cabinetmaking.

Position the chair in a quiet reading corner or library alcove, pairing its rich velvet texture and timber tones against neutral walls or contrasting modern side tables.

Gently vacuum the velvet upholstery using a soft brush attachment to remove dust, treat timber legs with beeswax polish, and keep the chair away from direct sunlight to prevent fabric fading.
