Antique Victorian Upholstered Armchair

19th century

A Victorian upholstered armchair of charming proportions and presence. The chair has a well-defined mahogany frame with finely shaped scrolled arms. The mahogany has a warm tone, highlighting the quality of the carving. It stands on turned front legs and outswept back legs, all mounted on castors. The chair is upholstered in a silk-type fabric embroidered with flowers on a striped ground. The upholstery follows the shape of the frame and complements the tone of the mahogany. A comfortable and attractive chair, well suited for use as a bedroom or occasional chair.

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.
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.
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.

Victorian armchairs typically feature carved hardwood frames, deep buttoned or tufted upholstery, curved cabriole or turned legs, and brass castors. They evolved throughout the 19th century to prioritize comfort, drawing room etiquette, and ornate woodworking.

Frames were predominantly crafted from dense hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, or rosewood. Internal cushioning utilised steel coil springs, natural horsehair padding, and jute webbing beneath woven wool, silk, or cotton velvet fabrics.

Authentic pieces display evidence of hand-carved decorative elements with slight natural asymmetry, traditional mortise and tenon joinery, original brass or ceramic castors, and layered horsehair stuffing visible underneath the seating base.

Position the chair as a focal accent piece within a contemporary living room, bedroom corner, or home office. Juxtaposing period woodwork with clean, modern architectural lines creates visual texture and balanced contrast.

Dust the timber frame with a soft microfibre cloth and nourish the wood with natural beeswax annually. Vacuum fabric upholstery using a low-suction soft brush attachment, and keep the piece positioned away from direct sunlight to avoid fading.
