FAQs

Victorian armchairs typically feature robust internal stuffing, deeply sprung seats, button tufting, and turned wooden legs often fitted with brass castors.

Authentic period chairs were constructed using seasoned hardwood frames like beech or mahogany, webbed foundations, horsehair stuffing, and heavy textile covers such as wool, damask, or velvet.

Authentication relies on examining the frame construction, traditional hand-tied coil springs, horsehair filling, hand-forged or brass fixings, and Maker stamps if present on the castors or legs.

Pairing a period upholstered chair with minimalist contemporary furnishings creates a balanced aesthetic, allowing the historical silhouette and textured fabric to serve as a focal point.

Protect antique velvet from direct sunlight to prevent fading, avoid moisture, and gently brush the pile with a soft-bristled brush to maintain its texture without damaging the delicate fibres.
