This nineteenth-century armchair in the Howard style has traditional upholstery throughout, incorporating a sprung seat and backrest with deep buttoning. The sage green fabric shows visible signs of wear and age, complemented by low scroll arms. It stands on turned mahogany front legs fitted with gilt brass castor wheels. Measuring 74 cm wide by 93 cm deep by 89 cm high, with a seat width of 48 cm, a seat depth of 59 cm, and a seat height of 36 cm, the chair is structurally sound and suited for reupholstery. It fits naturally into an English country house interior as a lounge seat in a living room or study.

A Howard style armchair is characterised by a deep seat, low padded scroll arms, turned wooden front legs on brass castors, and full fabric upholstery, modelled after 19th-century designs by Howard and Sons.

These armchairs traditionally utilise hardwood frames, coil spring suspension, natural horsehair stuffing, turned timber legs, brass castors, and woven textile upholstery.

Authentic period examples often feature stamped back legs or castors with the manufacturers mark, along with original monogrammed ticking underneath the primary upholstery.

Place the chair alongside a floor lamp and side table to create a reading nook, or set it opposite a contemporary sofa to balance modern lines with traditional proportions.

Vacuum upholstery regularly on a low setting using a soft brush attachment, keep the fabric away from direct sunlight to minimise fading, and treat the wooden legs with natural beeswax.
