Description

A fantastic antique leather wing back armchair. This was made in England, it dates from around the 1890-1910 period.

The quality is superb and it is extremely comfortable to relax in, it is supportive and well padded. The chestnut leather has a gorgeous colour tone and patina, this sits on solid mahogany cabriole legs with acanthus leaf carving at the knees, terminating in claw and ball feet. This has likely been re-upholstered in the past half century, the original horse hair stuffing has been retained inside.

We have had the leather revived and polished by our leather restorer, the legs have also been re-polished. This is in excellent condition for its age, with only some very minor wear here and there and one very small historical repair seen on the seat, which is barely noticeable.

Wingback armchairs originated in the 17th century, primarily designed to protect sitters from drafts in poorly heated homes and to trap heat from open fireplaces within the seating area.

Authentic pieces typically feature a solid hardwood frame, hand-tied coil springs, horsehair or wool stuffing, and high-quality bovine leather secured with individual brass tack nails.

Authentication involves examining the frame construction for traditional joinery, inspecting the patina and wear patterns of the leather, checking for hand-forged or early brass tacks, and looking for makers marks or stamps.

This seating piece pairs effectively with contemporary minimalism, neutral colour palettes, and sleek metallic accents, providing a textural anchor and a sense of historical contrast within a contemporary living space.

Preservation requires keeping the leather away from direct sunlight and heat sources, regularly dusting with a soft cloth, and occasionally applying specialized leather balms or waxes to prevent drying and cracking.
