Howard and Sons furniture is characterised by supreme comfort, robust craftsmanship, and distinctive traditional upholstery methods, often featuring deep springing and signature ticking or patterned fabric.

These pieces typically feature solid timber frames such as mahogany or beech, hand-tied coil springs, horsehair stuffing, and are supported by turned wooden legs fitted with brass castors.

Authenticity is usually verified by stamped brass castor caps, maker marks on the webbed underside, and serial numbers, alongside the distinctively high-grade traditional joinery and materials.

An antique upholstered ottoman works effectively as a coffee table alternative when topped with a wooden tray, or as a classic footrest paired with neutral sofas to add pattern and texture.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming with a soft brush attachment, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent fabric fading, and professional cleaning for the historical textile components.
