Chaise Longue Sofa with Ionic Column Legs

19th century
Description

A 19th Century Chaise longue sofa with carved ionic revival column-shaped legs.

Having Solid mahogany legs with parcel gilt details- all four legs are matching in design with brass cup castors.

Curve-shaped back and scroll arms. The back is tall enough for it to be used as a sofa, as well as a daybed.

Traditionally upholstered, with a sprung seat and horsehair fillings throughout.

Currently buttoned-back and covered in a pink velvet fabric. Has a matching foam-filled seat cushion, however we've photographed it with a plump feather cushion. This feather option could be added in the upholstery process.

We would definitely recommend adding the additional feather seat and lumbar cushion shown as these ensure it is very comfortable to lay down on.

Width 216cm x Depth 80cm x Height 82cm, with a seat width of 148cm, seat depth of 59cm and seat height of 44cm.

Awaiting attribution checks.

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 chaise longue, originating in 16th-century France, is an upholstered sofa shaped like a long chair designed for reclining. The style gained widespread popularity across Europe during the 18th and 19th centuries as a symbol of luxury and relaxation in formal drawing rooms.

Traditional pieces featured solid timber frames, typically carved from mahogany, walnut, or rosewood, coupled with hand-tied steel coil springs and natural fillings such as horsehair or feather down. Upholstery frequently utilised silk damask, wool tapestry, or cotton velvet, supported by carved wood legs fitted with castors.

Authentic Victorian examples often feature hand-carved decorative motifs on the legs or frame, deep button tufting, and original brass castors. Inspecting the underside reveals hand-stitched webbing, antique brass hardware, and timber joinery indicative of period craftsmanship.

In modern interiors, a velvet chaise longue serves as a striking statement piece in a primary bedroom suite, dressing room, or living space. Positioning the piece alongside contemporary lighting or minimalist side tables creates a balanced dialogue between period character and modern design.

Vacuum velvet gently using a soft brush attachment in the direction of the nap to remove surface dust. Keep timber legs clean by wiping with a lint-free cloth and applying a high-grade beeswax paste periodically, while ensuring the piece remains away from direct sunlight to prevent fabric fading.
