FAQs

Howard style armchairs are characterised by deep, comfortable proportions, low backs, and rolled arms, originally manufactured by the renowned firm Howard & Sons in London.

Authentic pieces typically feature a sturdy beechwood frame, hand-tied coil springs, horsehair stuffing, and traditional calico or damask upholstery.

Key indicators include stamped brass castors, numbered legs, traditional hand-stitched detailing, and the signature weight and construction quality of nineteenth-century cabinet making.

An antique armchair provides a grounding focal point in a contemporary living space, contrasting clean modern lines with historic texture and deep comfort.

Protect the fabric from direct sunlight, vacuum gently using a low-suction attachment, and have professional conservators handle any structural or upholstery repairs.
