FAQs

The Howard style armchair originated in the 19th century, popularised by the renowned furniture maker Howard & Sons, known for low-slung, comfortable proportions and rolled arms.

Traditional construction typically involves a sturdy beech frame, coiled steel spring units, horsehair stuffing, and Hessian webbing underneath.

Authentic pieces often feature stamped brass castors, numbered legs, and traditional hand-stitched internal webbing beneath the upholstery.

Exposed frames can be integrated into eclectic or transitional spaces by pairing them with rich patterned textiles, textured linens, or bold statement prints.

Protect frames from direct sunlight and excessive humidity, and vacuum fabric surfaces regularly using a low-suction attachment to prevent fibre degradation.
