This Victorian Queen Anne revival wing armchair dates from around 1880. The substantial wooden frame is made from walnut with a rich warm brown timber colour, carrying long cabriole front legs terminating in wide pad feet with carved scrolls at the hips, well-shaped spandrels, and a few minor dings alongside a refitted spandrel. The armchair is newly upholstered in heavyweight gold satin silk fabric by P Kaufmann, providing a supportive padded construction complete with a loose squab cushion, rolled arms, and a tall winged backrest. The overall height is 104 cm, the depth measures 69 cm, and the maximum width spans 69 cm, with a seat height of 53 cm. Suitable for use in a modern home today as a comfortable fireside seat or an imposing desk chair, the armchair brings classic English country house style to a living room, library, or study. The sturdy framework and plush golden upholstery combine traditional period craftsmanship with practical daily seating comfort, making it a functional addition to a traditional interior scheme.

FAQs

Vacuum delicate silk upholstery gently using a soft brush attachment and avoid direct sunlight to prevent fading. Clean walnut legs with a soft cloth and apply beeswax periodically to preserve the wood finish.

Place the chair as a standalone accent piece in a reading corner, study, or living room, pairing its curved traditional form with neutral modern textiles or minimalist side tables for visual contrast.

Look for hand-carved cabriole front legs, pegged or corner-blocked frame joinery beneath the upholstery, genuine timber oxidisation, and late 19th-century construction marks along the underside.

Late 19th-century examples typically combine solid walnut or mahogany frames with traditional upholstery methods, including hand-tied steel springs, horsehair filling, and woven silk, satin, or velvet fabrics.

The Queen Anne style, originating in early 18th-century Britain and revived during the late Victorian era, features gentle curves, cabriole legs, pad feet, and a high-backed silhouette with side wings designed for draught protection.
