FAQs

A Howard style armchair is characterised by its deep seat, low reclined profile, padded armrests with recessed wooden supports, and turned front legs on castors. Popularised during the nineteenth century by Howard & Sons, this design prioritised comfort and lounging within country house interiors.

Traditional pieces feature hardwood framing, usually oak or beech, constructed with coil springs, horsehair, and hessian layering. Legs were turned from mahogany or walnut and fitted with stamped brass castors.

Authentic Howard & Sons armchairs frequently feature stamped makers marks or serial numbers on the rear legs or castors, along with branded ticking fabric under upholstery layers. Unmarked examples in this distinct silhouette are categorised as being in the Howard style.

This type of seating pairs effectively with neutral backdrops, such as minimalist or classic panelled walls, serving as a focal point. Position it alongside a contemporary side table or standing lamp to balance period craftsmanship with modern elements.

Vacuum upholstery regularly using a soft brush attachment to prevent dust accumulation within button tufting and woven fibers. Protect timber legs from direct sunlight and polish turning details occasionally with natural beeswax.
