Description

Fabulous oak arm chair with solid oak frame from the fantastic Victorian era. This chair has Bergere panel back with carved uprights toped with turned finials and a padded upholstered seat. The arms gracefully sweep down and terminate in lion's head hand grips, adding a touch of regal elegance. Supported by bobbin legs united by a beautifully turned H stretcher, this chair is a testament to the craftsmanship of the period. While there are some imperfections typical of antique furniture, the seat shows signs of wear, but the frame remains solid, displaying a rich colour and a desirable aged patina. With its Bergere back, padded seat and comfortable seat height, this stylish chair offers a comfortable seating position. It will undoubtedly look amazing in the right location.

FAQs

A Victorian bergere armchair is an enclosed upholstered armchair characterised by cane panelling on the back and sometimes the sides, heavily influenced by French revival designs of the 19th century.

These chairs typically feature solid oak or walnut frames, woven cane panels, and are finished with upholstered seats using traditional horsehair stuffing and high-grade fabrics like velvet or leather.

Authentic pieces display hand-woven cane work with irregularities, traditional joinery methods such as mortise and tenon, hand-carved wooden details, and natural ageing like patination on the timber.

An antique armchair works effectively as a statement piece in a contemporary setting, paired with minimal furniture to highlight its historic craftsmanship and texture.

Preserve the wood with microcrystalline wax and maintain the cane by lightly dampening it periodically to prevent brittleness, keeping the chair away from direct heat sources and sunlight.
