FAQs

Victorian seating is characterised by robust construction, often incorporating turned wooden elements and deep upholstery reflecting the comfort demands of the period.

These pieces typically utilized hardwoods such as mahogany, oak, or walnut for the frame, combined with natural stuffing materials like horsehair and hessian for the upholstery foundation.

Authenticity is determined by examining traditional joinery methods, handmade fixings, timber ageing characteristics, and the construction layers beneath the upholstery.

Position the piece as an accent chair in a living room or study, pairing it with modern textiles or a contrasting fabric to create a balanced transitional aesthetic.

Maintain the timber with microcrystalline wax and protect the upholstery from direct sunlight and excessive humidity to prevent degradation of the natural fibres.
