A chaise longue, meaning long chair in French, gained immense popularity during the Victorian era as a luxurious seating option for resting and socialising without fully reclining in a bedroom.

These pieces typically feature solid hardwood frames such as mahogany, walnut, or beech, constructed with traditional joinery, hand-tied coil springs, and stuffed with natural fibres like horsehair or coir beneath hessian webbing.

Authenticity is determined by examining the frame construction for hand-cut joints, traditional hand-forged fixings, hand-turned wooden legs often featuring brass castors, and the presence of period-appropriate internal stuffing materials.

An antique chaise longue serves as a striking focal point in a living room, study, or bedroom, pairing effectively when reupholstered in contemporary textured fabrics or left in raw hessian for an industrial edge alongside modern minimalist decor.

Preservation involves keeping the wooden frame away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent cracking, dusting the carved elements regularly, and using professional restoration techniques for any exposed internal upholstery.
