FAQs

Victorian armchairs from the mid-to-late 19th century typically feature exposed dark wood show-frames, deep buttoning or padded backs, and padded armrests. Their silhouettes often incorporate gentle curves, spoon backs, and turned legs fitted with brass castors.

These armchairs were constructed using solid hardwoods such as mahogany, walnut, or rosewood for the framing. Traditional internal upholstery relied on coil springs, horsehair filling, jute webbing, and heavy woven fabrics like damask, velvet, or brocade.

Authentic period pieces show hand-carved details along the show-frame, original ceramic or brass castors, and hand-cut joinery such as mortise and tenon joints. The timber display natural age patina, variation in colour depth, and signs of hand-tool finishing.

A pair of antique armchairs can be arranged to flank a focal point such as a fireplace, positioned at the foot of a bed, or placed in a dedicated reading nook. Pairing traditional wooden frames with crisp neutral upholstery balances heritage craftsmanship with contemporary decor.

Dust mahogany frames regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and apply high-grade beeswax polish annually to nourish the timber. Vacuum upholstery using a low-suction fabric attachment and keep the chairs out of direct sunlight to prevent timber drying and fabric fading.
