Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Originating in 19th-century Britain, the smokers bow chair was a popular design used in public houses, clubs, and offices. It is defined by its low, horseshoe-shaped continuous armrest, steam-bent back rail, and sturdy turned spindles.

These chairs are predominantly crafted from solid native hardwoods such as oak, elm, ash, or beech. The seats can be solid timber or upholstered in leather with brass stud fastenings.

Authentic period examples feature hand-turned wooden spindles, wedged tenon joinery beneath the seat, natural wear to the armrests, and steam-bent wooden rails consistent with traditional 19th and early 20th-century cabinetmaking.

This style functions exceptionally well as a desk chair in a home study, an accent seat in a hallway, or paired with a dark wood writing table to create a traditional workspace atmosphere.

Dust timber elements regularly with a soft cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish along the wood grain once or twice a year. Upholstered leather seats should be wiped clean and conditioned periodically to prevent drying.
