Description

An excellent antique Victorian mahogany spoon back armchair. This was made in England and it dates from around the 1860-1880’s period.

The quality is fantastic, it is very well designed and is also extremely comfortable. The solid mahogany frame is very well carved and has a sweeping look. The scroll over arms are beautifully curved and have padded upholstery, this sits on original porcelain casters.

We have had this re-upholstered in our cream cotton fabric, the wood has a gorgeous patina and colour tone. The lowr front edge has been replaced at some point, this is barely noticeable and doesn’t detract from the overall look. We have had the frame fully re-polished before upholstery, the condition is excellent for its age.

FAQs

The spoon back style, popular during the Victorian era, features an oval, concave wooden frame that curves inward to resemble the bowl of a spoon, ergonomically designed to fit the human spine.

These chairs were typically constructed using dense hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, or rosewood, paired with traditional stuffing materials like horsehair, wool, and coil springs beneath the fabric upholstery.

Authentic pieces often display hand-carved wooden details, traditional joinery methods such as mortise and tenon, aged patina on the timber, and hand-forged fixings or early castors on the legs.

Pairing a historically rich antique seating piece with contemporary minimalist furniture creates a balanced, layered aesthetic that highlights the craftsmanship of the period.

Protect wooden frames from direct sunlight and fluctuating humidity to prevent cracking, and gently vacuum upholstered surfaces using a low-suction attachment with a soft brush.
