FAQs

A spoon back armchair is a style of seating developed in the 19th century featuring a curved, contoured backrest reminiscent of the bowl of a spoon. These chairs were designed to provide comfortable support and were widely produced during the Victorian era for drawing rooms and libraries.

Traditional 19th-century armchairs were constructed with solid hardwood frames, predominantly mahogany, walnut, or rosewood. Internal padding typically utilised natural materials such as coiled steel springs, horsehair, jute webbing, and heavy cotton calico.

Authentic Victorian spoon back chairs generally feature hand-turned front legs, splayed rear legs, brass castors, and hand-stitched upholstery under-layers. Look for evidence of traditional joinery, dark patina on the exposed timber, and original coil spring construction underneath the seat.

A Victorian armchair can be positioned alongside contemporary sofas to create visual contrast through mixed eras. Leaving the piece in deconstructed calico adds textural interest, or reupholstering it in plain linen or bold velvet bridges historical design with modern aesthetics.

Maintain timber components by dusting with a soft cloth and applying beeswax periodically to preserve the original finish. Upholstery and calico fabrics should be gently vacuumed with a soft brush attachment and kept out of direct sunlight to prevent fiber degradation.
