Brass cup castors on turned feet: standard early nineteenth-century running gear.
Cast brass mounts with dark patina: decorative mounts from the 1820s.

This large early nineteenth-century Regency sofa combines mahogany, brass and fabric. The show frame presents a rich mahogany brown tone complemented by pale cream upholstery on the scroll ends and ornate brass mounts. Carved reeded turned legs sit on brass castors, supporting the structure alongside exposed spring seating and decorative brass inlay along the rails. Measuring 81 cm high, 219 cm wide and 78 cm deep, the piece stands in strong condition with functional castors, delivered ready for complete upholstery. Suitable for placement in a spacious living room, drawing room or large hallway, this seating option accommodates multiple guests comfortably. The classic Regency styling suits traditional interiors while offering a focal point for historic or eclectic home schemes. Buyers can complete the exposed springs and frame with fabric of their choice to match existing interior decoration.

FAQs

Regency period sofas, popular in the early nineteenth century, draw heavy inspiration from Greco-Roman classical forms, typically featuring sweeping scroll arms, reeded legs, brass mounts, and symmetrical profiles designed for reclining.

These pieces were predominantly crafted using solid mahogany or rosewood frames, accented with cast brass mounts, rosettes, and brass wheel castors, whilst internal seats utilised coiled steel springs, webbed canvas, and horsehair stuffing.

Authentic examples feature hand-cut joinery such as mortise and tenon joints, original brass castors with natural tarnish, hand-turned reeded legs, and evidence of historical hand-planing or traditional upholstery tacking marks along the inner frame.

Position the sofa as a focal point against a neutral wall or at the foot of a bed, pairing its rich wood tones with contemporary linen upholstery and structured accent cushions to balance antique structure with modern softness.

Clean timber surfaces using a soft cloth and apply beeswax periodically along the grain, while brass fittings should be kept free of dampness and left unpolished to preserve historical oxidisation and patina.
