Victorian Walnut Armchair

19th century
For Sale by FB Antiques
Description

Victorian Walnut Button-Back Armchair

Item Code: S27-1110

A charming Victorian walnut armchair featuring an elegantly shaped frame, deep button-back upholstery and beautifully carved cabriole legs. The walnut shows a warm antique patina, and the chair retains excellent period character. There are historic signs of woodworm, but this has been fully treated and is no longer active. The upholstery is intact with no rips or tears, though the fabric shows age-related soiling and wear, so re-covering would enhance its overall presentation.

* Authentic Victorian walnut armchair

* Deep button-back upholstered backrest

* Scroll arms and carved cabriole legs

* Warm, original period patina

* Historic woodworm present but fully treated and not active

* Upholstery structurally sound with no tears; fabric displays age-related soiling and wear

* Decorative and comfortable accent piece

Dimensions

* Width: 67 cm

* Depth: 65 cm

* Height: 91 cm

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Victorian walnut armchairs typically feature soft contoured frames, button-tufted upholstery, carved wood detailing, and curved cabriole legs, reflecting the comfort-focused cabinetmaking styles of the mid-to-late 19th century.

These chairs were crafted from solid hardwoods such as walnut or mahogany, constructed with webbed seat bases and coil springs, upholstered in fabrics like velvet or damask, and finished with metal castors.

Authentic Victorian examples display hand-carved timber framing, period-correct brass or iron castors, webbed seat bases with hand-tied springs, and traditional button-tufted upholstery rather than modern stapled webbing.

A Victorian armchair acts as a tactile accent piece in contemporary spaces, pairing effectively alongside clean-lined sofas, minimalist lighting, and neutral colour schemes to add historical texture.

Vacuum the velvet gently using a soft brush attachment, position the chair away from direct heat sources to prevent wood movement, and apply natural beeswax sparingly to preserve the polished walnut frame.
