FAQs

Originating in 19th-century France during the Napoleon III era, a crapaud chair is a low-slung, fully upholstered armchair characteristically designed with a curved backrest and short legs.

These chairs were crafted around solid timber frames, usually beech or walnut, stuffed with natural horsehair and jute webbing, and upholstered in woven fabrics.

Authentic period examples feature hand-carved wood frames, hand-tied coil spring construction, traditional upholstery tacking, and pegged mortise and tenon joints.

Place the chair in a bedroom corner, dressing space, or quiet reading nook to add textural contrast and historic character to modern architectural spaces.

Gently vacuum the fabric using a soft brush attachment, protect the piece from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading, and treat marks promptly with specialist upholstery cleaners.
