Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

A 19th-century side chair is an armless seating piece designed to stand against a wall or sit beside a dining table, desk, or dressing table. These chairs frequently featured decorative timber veneers such as birds eye maple, turned front legs, and detailed tapestry or needlepoint upholstery.

Victorian side chairs were constructed using fine hardwoods such as birds eye maple, mahogany, walnut, and rosewood. Upholstery materials included woven wool tapestries, needlepoint, silk damask, and velvet, often secured with gimp trimming or brass studs over webbed seat frames.

Authentic 19th-century pieces display a natural wood grain with small swirl patterns resembling birds eyes, showing variations in colour depth from natural age. Construction indicators include hand-cut joinery, period-correct brass castors, and light natural wear along the leg bases and frame timber.

Position the chair in an empty corner of a bedroom, beside a console table, or paired with a writing desk to serve as a functional accent piece. The distinct pattern of the tapestry creates visual contrast when set against neutral walls or modern minimalist furniture.

Clean the wood frame with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and apply a clear bees wax polish annually to preserve the timber finish. Vacuum antique upholstery gently using a soft brush attachment and protect the piece from direct sunlight to prevent fabric fading and timber drying.
