Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

French Rococo style armchairs, often referred to as fauteuils, originated in the 18th century and experienced popular revivals throughout the 19th century. They are characterised by flowing curves, carved floral detailing, cabriole legs, and upholstered backrests and armrests.

Craftsmen primarily utilised fine hardwoods such as dark rosewood, mahogany, and walnut for the exposed timber frame. Upholstery traditionally incorporated horsehair padding, natural jute webbing, and hand-woven tapestry or velvet fabrics featuring intricate floral or heraldic patterns.

Authentic pieces display hand-carved decorative crests, smooth cabriole legs, and precise joinery such as mortise and tenon joints visible underneath. Look for natural wear along armrest pads, original webbing beneath the seat frame, and rich graining typical of genuine rosewood or mahogany timber.

Position the armchair as a focal point in a quiet corner, beside a fireplace, or alongside modern neutral sofa units to create visual contrast. Pairing ornate carved woodwork with minimalist architecture or subdued wall colours highlights the historical craftsmanship of the seat.

Dust the wooden frame regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a quality beeswax polish annually to nourish the rosewood. Vacuum the textile upholstery gently using a soft brush attachment, keeping the chair away from direct sunlight and heat radiators to prevent fabric fading or timber warping.
