Early 19th Century Yew Wood Windsor Armchair, Circa 1830

19th century
Description

An early 19th century yew wood Windsor armchair, circa 1830, with a particularly attractive warm colour and well-aged patina.

The high hooped back is formed with slender turned spindles centred by a pierced and shaped elm splat, continuing to the curved arm supports with turned front uprights. The chair has a generously shaped elm saddle seat, raised on turned yew wood legs united by a distinctive crinoline stretcher.

A very appealing country chair with good proportions and plenty of character, displaying the attractive variation in colour and surface associated with yew and elm. The chair retains the knocks, marks and wear consistent with its age and use, contributing to its pleasing, untouched appearance.

English, circa 1830.

FAQs

A Windsor armchair is characterized by a solid wooden saddle seat into which the legs and back spindles are secured using joinery sockets, rather than continuous back posts.

These chairs typically utilized native timbers such as yew, ash, and elm, employing steam-bending techniques for the outer hoop and lathe-turning for the legs and spindles.

Authentic pieces feature hand-turned components, irregular hand-carved details, wedge-secured leg joints visible on the seat surface, and natural wear patterns on the seat and arms.

A yew wood armchair can serve as an accent piece alongside contemporary neutral upholstery, placed in an entry hall, or used at a study desk to provide textual contrast.

Maintain yew wood by dusting with a soft cloth, applying high-grade beeswax twice yearly, and keeping the item away from direct heat sources to prevent timber shrinkage.
