Antique Upholstered Chaise Longue - With Concealed Storage

19th century
Description

Antique Chaise Longue - with concealed storage.

An antique traditionally upholstered chaise longue, likely dating from the late 19th or very early 20th century.

Of generous reclining proportions, the chaise has a high upholstered back and arm to one end, with a long sprung seat. The seat lifts to reveal a useful concealed storage compartment beneath - like and ottoman.

Raised on tapered timber legs with the original brass castors.

The frame is firm and in good order, with no known structural issues. A recent striped blue lining fabric has been fitted to give the chaise a clean presentation, although it is offered for reupholstery and provides a good opportunity for finishing in a fabric of choice.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Originating in France during the 16th century and refined throughout the 19th century, the chaise longue served as an elongated lounge chair designed for day-time resting. Victorian cabinetmakers often added concealed storage underneath the hinged seat cushion to maximise functionality in domestic dressing rooms and drawing rooms.

Traditional construction features a solid hardwood internal frame, typically oak, beech, or mahogany, reinforced with corner blocks. The seat utilizes coil springs secured with jute webbing and hand-tied twine, filled with horsehair or coir padding, and mounted on turned wooden legs fitted with brass castors.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-carved solid timber frames, original brass hinges or lifting mechanisms for the storage compartment, and stamped brass or iron castors. Examining the underside will often reveal hand-stitched webbing, antique brass tacking, and historic timber joinery such as mortise and tenon joints.

Position the chaise longue alongside a bay window or at the foot of a bed to create an inviting reading zone. Neutral ticking stripe upholstery blends seamlessly with contemporary minimalist schemes, while pairing it with structured modern lighting creates a balanced contrast.

Vacuum the fabric regularly using a soft brush attachment to prevent dust accumulation within the weave. Treat spills immediately by blotting with a clean, damp cloth rather than rubbing, keep the piece away from direct sunlight to prevent fabric fading, and periodically clean metal castors with a dry cloth.
