Why Sellingantiques dated this piece to THE 1860s:
Carved cabriole front legs with foliate cartouches: Rococo revival taste of the mid-Victorian period.
Brass cup castors with brown ceramic wheels: standard hardware from the 1860s onwards.
Crisp S-scroll armrest support: hand-carved mahogany typical of mid-nineteenth-century cabinet work.
Warm surface patina across the exposed timber: gentle ageing from long household handling.

This is an independent date report produced by Sellingantiques using its own proprietary system. The process uses the photographs shown on this page. The system is never told the date the dealer has declared. This report shows that the two dates corroborate.

This Victorian mahogany chaise longue is an upholstered reclining seat designed for stretching out, featuring a high, curved, deep-buttoned backrest at one end and a low scroll arm at the other. It is raised on shaped and carved cabriole legs fitted with brass castors. The timber frame displays a warm brown finish, while the recent upholstery consists of cream fabric patterned with vertical green stripes and small red floral motifs. Measuring 91 cm high, 178 cm wide, and 81 cm deep, the piece provides a comfortable resting place for a living room, study, or bedroom in a traditional English country house interior.

Originating from the French term for long chair, a Victorian chaise longue is an upholstered daybed featuring an asymmetrical armrest and sloped backrest designed for reclining during the 19th century.

These pieces were typically crafted with solid hardwood frames, such as mahogany, rosewood, or walnut, combined with hand-tied coil springs, horsehair padding, and cast brass castors.

Authentic Victorian examples feature hand-carved timber frameworks with period joinery, traditional brass castors attached to cabriole or turned legs, and evidence of hand-stitched webbing or natural horsehair stuffing.

Position the chaise in a bedroom bay window, a spacious hallway, or alongside a reading area to serve as an accent piece that introduces historical texture to contemporary schemes.

Keep the piece away from direct sunlight and radiators to prevent timber cracking and fabric fading, dust the woodwork with a soft cloth, and clean upholstery using gentle vacuum attachments.
