Why Sellingantiques dated this piece to THE 1910s:
Turned side and cross stretchers: early twentieth-century revival of Queen Anne chair construction.
Shaped cabriole legs with pad feet: characteristic early twentieth-century revival detailing.
Dark finish rubbed through at the base of the feet: natural handling and wear.
Generous proportions and wing profile: typical Edwardian interpretation of an eighteenth-century design.

This is an independent date and photo anotation report compiled by Sellingantiques using its own proprietary system. The process uses the photographs shown on this page. The system is never told the date the dealer has declared. This report shows that the two dates corroborate.

This Georgian Revival wing back armchair dates from 1910 and provides a sturdy, comfortable seat for the home. The piece is upholstered in a durable textile featuring a patterned damask design in rose pink and cream, complemented by rolled arms and a fitted seat cushion. Below, the dark hardwood frame rests on original carved cabriole legs linked by a turned wooden stretcher, displaying traditional craftsmanship. The textile is in good condition without visible tears or splits, maintaining a clean and presentable appearance. Practical dimensions measure 103 cm in height, 78 cm in width at the widest part, 58 cm in depth, and 47 cm in seat height. Suitable for various traditional or classic interior settings, this armchair fits comfortably into a living room, study, or drawing room as a reading chair or accent seating option. The generous high-backed wingback sides provide shelter and support, while the cushioned seat offers everyday comfort. The combination of rose pink and cream tones blends smoothly with neutral or patterned room schemes, bringing a touch of English Country House style to the interior. Maintenance involves simple periodic vacuuming of the damask fabric to preserve the textile surface over time.

FAQs

A wingback armchair is characterised by a high backrest flanked by side panels or wings, designed historically to protect the sitter from drafts and retain heat from an open fireplace.

Traditional construction incorporates solid hardwood internal frames, steel coil springs, natural fillings such as horsehair or coconut fibre, and upholstery fabrics like damask, velvet, or leather.

Authentic pieces feature mortise and tenon joinery, hand-carved leg detailing such as cabriole curves or pad feet, solid timber frame construction, and traditional webbing beneath the upholstery.

Place the chair beside a reading lamp or fireplace, balancing structured patterned fabric with clean-lined contemporary tables and neutral room finishes.

Vacuum fabric regularly using a soft brush attachment, keep the piece away from direct sunlight to prevent dye fading, and address spills immediately with specialised textile cleaners.
