FAQs

A bergere armchair is an upholstered armchair featuring an exposed wooden framework and solid or woven sides. Originating in 18th-century France, the design prioritises comfort with a deep, wide seat and loose cushion, often incorporating woven cane panels.

Late 19th-century examples typically feature dense hardwoods such as mahogany or rosewood for the structural frame. The side panels often utilise natural woven rattan cane, while seats and backrest cushions are upholstered in silk, damask, velvet, or floral chintz fabrics.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-carved mahogany framing, fluted or turned legs, and hand-woven cane panels. Look for original brass castors, hand-cut joinery such as mortise and tenon joints, and natural age-related patination on the timber frame.

A bergere chair functions as a focal accent piece in a contemporary living room, study, or bedroom nook. Pairing the structured mahogany frame with neutral linen upholstery or contrasting modern textiles creates an eclectic blend between classic and modern decor.

To preserve mahogany timber, dust regularly with a soft cloth and apply beeswax periodically along the grain. Keep the woven cane panels hydrated by occasionally wiping them with a damp cloth to prevent drying or splitting, and position the chair away from direct heat sources.
