Description

An outstanding antique leather barrel back wing armchair. This was made in England, it dates from the early twentieth century, likely around the 1910-20’s.

It is of superb quality, this is of generous proportions and is extremely comfortable. The design is beautiful, with a wonderful curved barrel shaped back and fine edges. The leather frame has brass tacked edges and stand on tapered mahogany legs that terminate in brass casters.

The colour of the leather is absolutely beautiful, we have had the leather revived by our leather restorer, the legs have also been re-polished. The condition is excellent for its age, with just some minor surface wear here and there, commensurate for age.

Wingback armchairs originated in the 17th century primarily to protect sitters from drafts in poorly heated rooms and to trap heat from fireplaces.

Authentic period chairs typically feature solid hardwood frames, hand-tied coil springs, horsehair or wool stuffing, and traditional vegetable-tanned leather secured with individual brass tacks.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the ageing and patina of the leather, hand-stitched seams, the type of wood in the frame, and the presence of hand-hammered brass tacks rather than modern staple strips.

Pairing a heavy leather chair with sleek, contemporary lines, minimalist lighting, and neutral textiles creates a balanced contrast that highlights the pieces heritage without overwhelming the room.

Preservation involves keeping the leather away from direct sunlight and heat sources, and periodically applying specialized leather conditioners to maintain suppleness and prevent cracking.
