Description

An outstanding antique leather barrel back wing armchair. This was made in England, it dates from the early twentieth century, likely around the 1930’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, the deep buttoned leather frame stand on tapered mahogany legs.

The colour of the leather is 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 and some light distressing to the leather on the seat cushion, commensurate for age.

Width – 34 inches , 86 cm

Depth – 31 inches , 79 cm

Height – 44 inches , 112 cm

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

Authentic pieces typically feature solid hardwood frames, traditional hand-tied coil springs, horsehair or wool stuffing, and high-quality bovine leather secured with individual brass tacks.

Authentication involves examining the hand-stitched seams, the patina of the leather, the type of wood in the frame, and the presence of hand-forged or early brass nailheads rather than modern staple strips.

Pairing this traditional seating piece with minimalist architectural elements, modern lighting, and neutral textiles creates a balanced, sophisticated contrast in a contemporary room.

Maintain the leather by keeping it away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dusting regularly, and applying specialist leather balms or conditioners periodically to prevent cracking.
