FAQs

Victorian deep seated armchairs emerged during the mid-to-late nineteenth century, designed with lower seat heights, angled backs, and generous proportions to emphasise comfort in informal domestic spaces such as morning rooms and libraries.

Frames were typically constructed from hardwoods such as mahogany or walnut, featuring traditional steel coil springs, jute webbing, horsehair stuffing, calico sub-layers, and brass castors.

Authentic examples feature hand-turned timber legs, stamped brass castors, traditional mortise and tenon frame joinery, and evidence of hand-tied webbed coil spring construction beneath upholstery layers.

These armchairs serve as functional accent seating in living rooms or reading nooks, performing well when upholstered in contemporary textured linen or traditional patterned velvet.

Timber legs should be treated with natural beeswax paste polish, while exposed upholstery structures should be kept dry and vacuumed gently using a soft brush attachment.
