FAQs

The spoonback armchair style, popular during the Victorian era, features a concave, oval-shaped upholstered backrest resembling the bowl of a spoon, often framed with carved solid wood.

These chairs are typically constructed from dense hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, or rosewood, paired with traditional horsehair stuffing, coil springs, and hand-tufted upholstery fabrics like velvet.

Authentic pieces exhibit period-appropriate joinery, hand-carved details, traditional hand-tied upholstery methods, and signs of age such as patina on the wood and wear on the fabric.

Pair the historical piece with contemporary minimalist elements, such as a neutral-toned sofa or a modern concrete floor, to create a striking contrast between old and new.

Keep the piece away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent wood cracking and fabric fading, and gently clean the wood with a dry microfibre cloth while vacuuming the velvet with a soft brush attachment.
