FAQs

Howard and Sons armchairs originated in Victorian England, celebrated for their deep proportions, exceptional lumbar support, and heavy-duty webbed and sprung construction designed for supreme comfort.

These chairs typically feature a sturdy beechwood frame, traditional hand-tied coil springs, horsehair stuffing, and ticking or calico under-upholstery, supported by turned wooden legs with brass castors.

Authentic pieces often feature stamped brass castors, numbered legs, paper manufacturer labels, or the characteristic Howard and Sons signature stamp on the back leg webbing.

Pair the armchair with a minimalist side table and contemporary lighting to balance its historical weight, or re-upholster it in a bold, textured fabric to create a striking focal point.

Protect the piece from direct sunlight to prevent fabric fading and timber drying, vacuum the upholstery gently with a soft brush attachment, and condition exposed wooden components periodically.
