FAQs

A camel back sofa is a traditional seating design characterised by an arched backrest that rises to a central point or hump, inspired by 18th-century English furniture makers such as Thomas Chippendale.

These sofas are typically constructed with a solid hardwood frame, such as oak or beech, featuring exposed carved mahogany or walnut legs, traditional webbed and coiled spring upholstery, and wool, velvet, or damask fabrics.

Authentic period examples feature hand-carved leg joinery, mortise and tenon construction, heavy timber framing, and evidence of original webbing or horsehair padding beneath updated upholstery.

A camel back sofa can serve as a focal point when placed against neutral walls, balanced with contemporary brass lighting, minimal side tables, and textured woven throws to blend historic form with modern aesthetics.

Regular gentle vacuuming using a soft brush attachment prevents dust accumulation, while professional upholstery cleaning and keeping the piece out of direct sunlight protect fabric fibres and colour integrity.
