The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

A Victorian open armchair features upholstered padding on the seat, backrest, and arm pads while retaining open space between the arm supports and the seat frame. Popularised in the nineteenth century, these chairs were designed for comfortable informal seating in libraries, drawing rooms, and bedrooms.

Victorian chairmakers typically constructed frames from solid hardwoods such as walnut, mahogany, or oak. The internal upholstery relied on natural materials including horsehair padding, jute webbing, and steel coil springs, with turned timber legs mounted on brass castors.

Authentic period armchairs often display stamped maker marks on the rear timber legs or brass castors, hand-poured brass fittings, and traditional joinery such as mortise and tenon joints. The presence of original steel coil springs, hand-tied twine, and horsehair stuffing beneath modern or calico covers also indicates original construction.

A Victorian open armchair in a calico base layer provides an adaptable foundation for contemporary interiors. Re-upholstering the chair in textured linen, velvet, or wool allows it to blend into modern living rooms, reading nooks, or study areas alongside clean-lined furnishings.

Keep the timber legs clear of excess moisture and clean them periodically with a dry microfibre cloth. Avoid exposing the fabric and wood to direct heat sources or prolonged sunlight, and ensure brass castors are kept clean and free of dust.
