This pair of late 19th-century Victorian Gothic dining chairs uses solid oak and original chestnut red Morocco leather upholstery secured with brass studs. The tall backs incorporate carved cresting, spindle galleries and leather pad inserts, while the seat frames sit atop turned front legs fitted with castors and joined by stretcher rails. Visible details include warm brown timber grain, carved top rail motifs, turned wooden spindle rails below the back pads and brass upholstery tacks outlining the leather panels. Measuring 99 cm high, 48 cm wide and 50 cm deep with a seating height of 45 cm, these chairs suit placement around a dining table or as side seating in a reception room or study.

FAQs

During the late 19th century, Victorian craftsmen frequently drew inspiration from Renaissance and Gothic design movements, creating solid oak chairs featuring detailed hand-carvings, turned legs, and brass-studded leather upholstery.

These chairs were constructed from solid oak utilizing mortise and tenon joinery, fitted with brass castors, and upholstered using natural hide fixed with individually placed brass studs.

Authentic period chairs feature signs of natural age, hand-turned timber elements, original brass castors, patinated leather, and subtle hand-tooling variations in the carved cresting.

Place a pair of carved oak side chairs on either side of a hallway console table, or integrate them as accent seating in a study or library to introduce historical texture alongside modern decor.

Maintain timber surfaces by applying beeswax along the wood grain, and treat the leather with a specialised hide conditioner to prevent drying while keeping the piece away from direct heat sources.
