This 1930 Queen Anne style wing back armchair has a tall, arched backrest with high side wings, rolled arms, and a loose seat cushion filled with down. The timber frame is supported by carved cabriole legs finished with pad feet, and the upholstery consists of a bright crimson red fabric with a fine corduroy texture. Additional details include clean, straight vertical piping along the wing edges and exposed dark wood legs that show subtle grain variations. The chair measures 109 cm high, 88 cm wide, and 88 cm deep. Position this armchair in a living room, study, or reading corner to provide a comfortable seating option suited to traditional English country house interiors. The high back and deep seat offer generous proportions for daily use, while the removable cushion cover simplifies maintenance. The vibrant red hue adds a strong splash of colour to both neutral and patterned interior schemes, fitting well beside a fireplace or paired with a side table.

FAQs

A wingback armchair is a high-backed upholstered seat featuring side panels or wings extending from the backrest to the armrests, originally designed in seventeenth-century England to trap heat from fireplaces and block cold draughts.

Traditional wingback armchairs feature solid hardwood timber frames, typically beech, oak, or walnut, joined with dowels and mortise-and-tenon construction, supported by steel coil springs and woven webbing under fabric upholstery.

Authentic period wingback chairs typically display hand-carved solid wood legs, hand-tacked upholstery webbing, uneven wear patterns on timber joints, and visible hand-sawn frame timber when inspected from underneath.

Position a wingback chair alongside a slim floor lamp and side table in an empty corner to create a functional reading area that contrasts classic curves against contemporary architectural lines.

Vacuum fabric upholstery regularly using a soft brush attachment to remove dust, blot liquid spills immediately without rubbing, and apply natural beeswax polish to timber legs while keeping the piece away from direct sunlight.
