FAQs

The Howard style armchair, popularised in the 19th century by the firm Howard & Sons, is characterised by low, scrolled arms, deep cushioning, and typically sits on short wooden legs with brass castors.

Authentic pieces are built using a robust beechwood frame, traditional coil springs, horsehair stuffing, and high-quality hessian webbing, topped with feather or down cushions.

Verification involves checking for stamped brass castors, makers marks on the rear legs or webbing, traditional hand-tacked upholstery, and the specific proportions distinctive to the maker.

This seating option pairs well with contemporary neutral palettes, balancing traditional craftsmanship with modern textures, and can be upholstered in patterned linen or velvet for a layered aesthetic.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming of the upholstery, keeping the piece away from direct sunlight to prevent fabric degradation, and periodic professional conditioning of the wooden components.
