Description

A Victorian iron framed armchair, circa 1880, with unusual padded and buttoned back, the sprung serpentine seat raised on ring turned front supports terminating in orginal brass and porceain castors.

These iron framed chairs are particularly comfortable as the sprung back has some give. This example is a mid size and suitable as an occasional chair or for the bedroom.

It is in good, sound condiiton and just needs new top covers. I can arrange upholstery and supply fabric if required. Please get in touch for further details.

FAQs

Victorian button back armchairs are characterised by deeply tufted upholstery, curved silhouettes, and turned wooden legs often fitted with castors, reflecting the comfort and opulence of the 19th century.

These chairs typically feature a sturdy timber or iron internal frame, traditional coil sprung seating, horsehair or wool stuffing, and hand-tufted upholstery secured with buttons.

Authentic pieces often exhibit hand-turned wooden components, traditional joinery, handmade fixings, and natural stuffing materials visible beneath or within the upholstery structure.

Pair the traditional silhouette with minimalist contemporary furnishings or place it against a neutral wall to let the textured upholstery and period craftsmanship stand out as a focal point.

Protect the fabric from direct sunlight to prevent fading, vacuum gently using a low-suction attachment, and consult a professional conservator for deep cleaning or structural repairs.
