Victorian armchairs are typically characterised by generous proportions, deep buttoning, and robust wooden frames, reflecting the periods preference for comfort combined with decorative craftsmanship.

Frames were predominantly constructed from hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, or oak, while traditional upholstery utilised horsehair, stuffing, springs, and natural web foundations.

Authenticity is determined by inspecting the frame construction, hand-cut joinery, traditional stuffing materials like curled horsehair, and the presence of period-appropriate wear and oxidisation on the timber and castors.

Pairing a historic armchair with modern, minimalist furnishings creates a striking juxtaposition, allowing the traditional silhouette and texture to act as a focal point within the room.

Preservation requires keeping the piece away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent the wood and textile fibres from drying out, alongside gentle dusting of the wooden components.
