Antique William IV Period Mahogany and Leather Caned Armchair

19th century
Description

A beautiful and very well made antique William IV period mahogany and leather caned armchair. This was made in England, it dates from around the 1830-1840 period.

It is of very fine quality, the solid mahogany frame has beautifully carved scrolled armrests, it sits on carved baluster legs with brass casters. The proportions are lovely, and it is very comfortable as well.

We have had the frame re-polished, the cane is all in good order. The feather filled leather cushion has been newly made in a hand dyed brown leather. The condition is excellent for its age, with normal surface wear and patina to be expected on a period piece.

We also have another near identical chair coming through and currently being restored, if you are interested in a closely matched pair, let us know.

Width – 22 inches , 56 cm

Depth – 28 inches , 71 cm

Height – 38 inches , 96 cm

Seat height – 20 inches , 51 cm

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

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

William IV seating, produced between 1830 and 1837, bridges the gap between Regency elegance and Victorian solidity. It features bold curves, turned legs, heavily carved scrollwork, and rich woods such as mahogany and rosewood.

These chairs were typically constructed from solid mahogany or walnut frames, incorporating hand-woven rattan cane for ventilation and horsehair-stuffed leather or velvet cushions for comfort.

Look for hand-carved scroll details, original brass castors attached to turned front legs, hand-woven cane work, and traditional mortise and tenon joinery beneath the seat frame.

Place the armchair beside a contemporary writing desk or within an understated reading corner to allow the rich timber patination and carved silhouette to serve as a focal point.

Apply a natural beeswax polish to the mahogany frame periodically, nourish the leather cushion with specialist leather conditioner, and keep the cane moist using a damp cloth to prevent brittle cracking.
