Pair of George I Style Walnut & Leather Wing Armchairs, Circa 1930

1920 - 1940
Description

A superb and highly decorative pair of George I style walnut wing armchairs, dating to circa 1930, and upholstered in beautifully aged hand-coloured leather. These elegant chairs combine classic early 18th century design with the quality craftsmanship of the early 20th century, offering both comfort and timeless appeal.

The tall, shaped backs with pronounced wings are complemented by generously scrolled arms, all outlined with close-nailed brass studwork, adding definition and a refined finish. The leather upholstery has developed a rich, warm patina, with natural creasing and tonal variation enhancing their character and authenticity.

Each chair is raised on finely carved walnut cabriole legs, terminating in pad feet, with carved detailing to the knees that reflects the influence of early Georgian design. The proportions are generous and inviting, with deep, comfortable seats making them ideal for everyday use.

The walnut frames display a mellow tone, beautifully complementing the warmth of the leather, and the overall condition is excellent, with only minor wear consistent with age.

A classic and versatile pair, perfect for a country house interior, library, or drawing room, offering a wonderful blend of style, comfort, and craftsmanship.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

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.

The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

George I style wing armchairs feature characteristic high backs, flared side wings originally designed to draft-proof fireside seating, and carved cabriole legs, popularised during the early 18th-century revival period.

These pieces typically feature solid walnut or mahogany frames, carved cabriole front legs, genuine leather upholstery fastened with brass studded trim, and dense horsehair or webbed padding.

Look for hand-carved details on cabriole legs, original brass studding, hand-tinted or patinated leather, and solid timber frames with traditional joinery such as mortise and tenon joints.

Position a pair of leather wing chairs flanking a fireplace, alongside a dark wood side table, or as anchor seating in a home library to blend traditional craftsmanship with modern living spaces.

Condition the leather periodically with specialised leather balsam to prevent drying, dust the wood frame with a soft cloth, and keep the seating away from direct heat sources and sunlight.
