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

Originating in the 19th century, a nursing chair is a low-seated, armless or low-armed upholstered chair designed to facilitate mothers breastfeeding while wearing restrictive Victorian gowns and corsets.

These chairs typically feature solid hardwood frames crafted from mahogany, rosewood, or walnut, upholstered in rich fabrics such as velvet, damask, or needlepoint, supported by turned timber front legs with metal castors.

Authentic 19th-century examples display characteristic low seat heights, solid timber frames with hand-carved detailing, traditional upholstery construction using coil springs and horsehair, and turned front legs fitted with ceramic or brass wheel castors.

A Victorian nursing chair serves as a versatile accent piece in contemporary spaces, ideal for placement in a bedroom corner, a dressing room, or alongside a hearth to introduce textural contrast and historical character.

Vacuum the velvet upholstery gently using a soft brush attachment, keep the timber frame away from direct heat sources to prevent wood shrinkage, and apply natural beeswax polish periodically to preserve the mahogany finish.
