Description

An outstanding pair of antique leather barrel back wing armchairs. They were made in England and date from the early twentieth century, likely around the 1920-30’s.

They are of superb quality, they are generous in proportions and are extremely comfortable. The design is beautiful, with wonderful curved barrel shaped backs, the deep buttoned leather frames stand on tapered mahogany legs, the plump seat cushions are feather filled.

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 their age, with just some minor surface wear here and there, commensurate for age.

Width – 35.5 inches , 90 cm

Depth – 33 inches , 84 cm

Height – 44 inches , 112 cm

Seat height – 18 inches , 46 cm

FAQs

Wingback armchairs originated in Britain during the 17th century, specifically designed to protect occupants from draughts and radiate heat from a fireplace.

Authentic period pieces typically feature solid hardwood frames, traditional coil springs, horsehair stuffing, and hand-dyed leather secured with individual brass tacks.

Authentication relies on examining the patina of the leather, hand-stitched seams, traditional joinery methods on the wooden frame, and the presence of hand-forged or early brass fasteners.

Pairing these chairs with contemporary minimalist elements, neutral walls, or contrasting textures creates a balanced interior scheme that highlights the rich material.

Maintain antique leather by keeping it away from direct sunlight and heat sources, and periodically treating the surface with appropriate leather creams or saddle soaps to prevent cracking.
